Migrating from Talend Dictionary Service 7.x installed with an external MongoDB

Before you begin

You have downloaded Talend Dictionary Service 8.0.

Procedure

  1. Stop your instance of the previous version of Talend Dictionary Service but keep MongoDB running.
  2. Open a mongo shell as Talend Dictionary Service database user and back up the MongoDB instance used for the previous version of Talend Dictionary Service using the following command:
    mongodump -h <mongodb.host>:<mongodb.port> -d <mongodb.database> -u <mongodb.user> -p <mongodb.password> -o <dump_output> 
    The default value for the embedded MongoDB properties are the following:
    Property Value
    mongodb.host localhost
    mongodb.port 27017
    mongodb.database dqdict
    mongodb.user dqdict-user
    mongodb.password duser

    Example

    mongodump -h localhost:27017 -d dqdict -u dqdict-user -p duser -o dump\
  3. Stop your MongoDB instance.
  4. Install MongoDB 4.4 and start it.
    Talend Dictionary Service 8.0 uses the 4.4 version of MongoDB.
  5. Restore MongoDB, open a command prompt window and execute the following command: <mongo_path>/bin/mongorestore -h <mongo_host>:<mongo_port> -u <mongo_dq_username> -p <mongo_dq_password> -d <mongo_dq_database> <backup_location>

    Example

    mongorestore -h localhost:27017 -d dqdict -u dqdict-user -p duser dump\       
  6. Install Talend Dictionary Service 8.0 with the external MongoDB, and configure it with the same settings as your instance of the previous version of Talend Dictionary Service, especially the links to your Talend Administration Center and point to MongoDB 4.4.
    For more information about the Talend Dictionary Service installation and configuration procedures, see Installing and configuring Talend Dictionary Service.
  7. Open the previous version of the <Tomcat>/conf/data-quality.properties file and the new version.
  8. In the new version of the data-quality.properties file, replace the following parameter names with the new names:
    Previous parameter name New parameter name
    dq.mongo.host spring.data.mongodb.host
    dq.mongo.port spring.data.mongodb.port
    dq.mongo.username spring.data.mongodb.username
    dq.mongo.password spring.data.mongodb.password
    dq.mongo.database.name spring.data.mongodb.database
    dq.mongo.ssl.enabled spring.data.mongodb.ssl
    dq.mongo.ssl.trust-store spring.data.mongodb.ssl.trust-store
    dq.mongo.ssl.trust-store-password spring.data.mongodb.ssl.trust-store-password
  9. If you have performed any custom configuration to the previous version of the data-quality.properties file, update the 8.0 version of the file by coping the values from the old configuration file.
  10. Start Talend Dictionary Service 8.0 by launching, in this order:
    • Apache ZooKeeper
    • Apache Kafka
    • Apache Tomcat (Talend Administration Center server and Talend Identity and Access Management server)
    • MongoDB
    • MinIO
