Hi ports@,

sthen@ put a warning into his latest commit for the unifi Makefile:

unifi: warn at update if the database is old and was created using mongodb's
deprecated MMAPV1 engine, doing a config backup + shutdown + remove db files
+ restore will recreate with WiredTiger which has significantly smaller files
and checkpointing (and seems like it maybe a bit more robust..)

I was wondering, what exactly to do? How would i get the engine, mongodb is 
using for the unifi tables? How would i backup, as the readme of the controller 
states, to do backups through tarring up /usr/local/share/unifi/data, which 
acutally includes the mongodb? Backing up over the webinterface, deleting 
/usr/local/share/unifi/data/* and then starting all over until i can upload the 
file (which is not supposed to work with the unix version, according to the 
readme at /usr/local/share/unifi/readme.txt?

Maybe someone or sthen@ could sheld some light on this or points me to the 
right direction?

Best,
Marc
