Broken restore script

[jwillmer]

Summary

The interactive restore script is broken in many ways.

• The DEFAULT_CREATE_LATEST_SYMLINK=TRUE does not work. I dont have any symlink.
• When restoring the mongo db I have to press ENTER when I get asked to select the db name since I want to restore all. Otherwise it wont work.
• I will be asked for user and password since the script can't find it any more. They are in DB01_ and I can see them in the environment - backups work.

The non interactive restore script is broken:

• I can't define empty db name and ALL is not recognized
• I can't define the option if I want to drop db before restoring. Meaning it drops me to an interactive shell.

I ended up now restoring manually because to many things are broken to find workarounds for it:

mongorestore --gzip -d= -h=db --port=27017 --drop -u=service_account -p=my_secret_pw--archive=/backup/mongo__db_20250328-121235.archive.gz
