# Steps to restart Replication Server

### Stop the replication servers 

1) From the secondary-1 host (local IP address: 192.168.0.2, external IP address: 10.10.230.251), stop the two secondary mongodb servers (10.10.230.251:27017, 172.16.2.122:27017) 

```
systemctl stop mongodb 

// Login to secondary-2 host (172.16.2.122) to stop the mongodb server 

ssh test@172.16.2.122 

systemctl stop mongodb 
```

2) From the primary host (local IP address: 192.168.0.184), stop the primary mongodb server (10.10.230.251:27018) 

`systemctl stop mongodb`

### Start the replication servers 

1) Open the terminal in the primary host (local IP address: 192.168.0.184) to start the primary mongodb server (10.10.230.251:27018)  

`systemctl start mongodb `

2) Start the two secondary mongodb servers (10.10.230.251:27017, 172.16.2.122:27017) 

```
// Login to secondary-1 host (10.10.230.251) to start the mongodb server 

ssh test@10.10.230.251 

systemctl start mongodb 


// Login to secondary-2 host (172.16.2.122) to start the mongodb server 

ssh test@172.16.2.122 

systemctl start mongodb 
```
