Last updated
Option 13 allows you to attempt to fix the MongoDB database and allow Flux OS to re-index the Flux documents. This is helpful if you encounter a DB error in Flux OS logs or if there was an issue with your MongoDB install or update.
The soft repair option is a good first attempt to fix a corrupt Mongo Database. It is not always guaranteed to work but is the less intrusive way to attempt a database repair. It is advised to try this first to see if it fixes your database issue.
The hard repair option will completely re-install MongoDB and will re-index all Flux documents. This can sometimes take up to 1 hour to complete but is the most complete way to fix an issue with Mongo DB and is sometimes required if there was and issue during the initial install or an update.
