Enable MongoDB's free cloud-based monitoring service, which will then receive and display
metrics about your deployment (disk utilization, CPU, operation statistics, etc).

The monitoring data will be available on a MongoDB website with a unique URL accessible to you
and anyone you share the URL with. MongoDB may use this information to make product
improvements and to suggest MongoDB products and deployment options to you.

To enable free monitoring, run the following command: db.enableFreeMonitoring()

## List the available databases in the MongoDb server
> show dbs;
admin   0.000GB
config  0.000GB
local   0.000GB

Create a database
> use mongo;
switched to db mongo

Check out the database that you are currently switched in using the below command
> db
mongo

Check the database list after the creation of database
> show dbs;
admin   0.000GB
config  0.000GB
local   0.000GB

To keep the created database into the list, need to insert the document into the database
> db.users.insert({"id":1})
WriteResult({ "nInserted" : 1 })

After the successful insertion of a document inside the database, now check the database list where you could find the created database name
> show dbs;
admin   0.000GB
config  0.000GB
local   0.000GB
mongo   0.000GB

Drop the newly created database as follows
> db.dropDatabase ()
{ "dropped" : "mongo", "ok" : 1 }

Now verify the database list wher the mongo database has been dropped
> show dbs;
admin   0.000GB
config  0.000GB

## create a database
> use mydb;
switched to db mydb

## Create a user for mydb database with read and write access
> db.createUser(
... {
... user:"user2",
... pwd:"linuxc",
... roles:["readWrite"]
... }
... )
Successfully added user: { "user" : "user2", "roles" : [ "readWrite" ] }

## List the mydb database users by executing the following command

> db.getUsers();
[

		]
	}
]

## Now drop the user2 as follows

> db.dropUser('user2')
true

 ##Now list the mydb database user

> db.getUsers();
[ ]

##  Check the currently switched in the database by executing the following command

> db
mydb

With this, creation of admin user, database and user for a specific database, Dropped the database and also user for a specific database in MongoDB server on CentOS 7.6 comes to end.
