MongoDB: sync dbs from master to replica set

Step1- I have following collections in my main db [running on port 27017]

$mongo

$show dbs

show dbs DB 0.078GB

admin (empty)

auditing

local

university

test

Step2- Now I am creating replica using below command

$mongod --dbpath ~/mongodb_data_dir/mongo/data0 --replSet auditlogreplySet --port 27018

$mongod --dbpath ~/mongodb_data_dir/mongo/data1 --replSet auditlogreplySet --port 27019

$mongod --dbpath ~/mongodb_data_dir/mongo/data2 --replSet auditlogreplySet --port 27020

Step3- running mongo for port 27018

$ mongo --port 27018

$show dbs

admin (empty)

local 0.328GB

Query: is it possible to sync all dbs from port 27017(main DB) to replica 27018? Please help. so that I can see all the dbs existing in main db in replica set.

As per the above post, you have just created the replica set members. you need to add these replica members to the PRIMARY NODE first.

In main db [running on port 27017] , run the below commands :

rs.initiate(); // this command will make this NODE as PRIMARY.

// To add the secondary replica members, use the below command, run these in the same main DB shell :

rs.add (machineName:port);

// once you are done, on each of the secondary replica shell, exceute the below command

rs.slaveOk();

// once you are done, it will sync all the dbs from the primary node.
