      Description

      The `Seed with mongorestore` tutorial requires the user to assemble the commands to run. Furthermore, as noted by andrew.davidson the procedure itself may be incorrect.

      Make the following changes:

      • Use Command Line tools tab to assemble the `mongorestore` command. Point it at the created dump file.
        • Direct users to whitelist the host they are using to run `mongorestore`.
        • Test whether `--nsExclude` is still required.
      • Connect and confirm the data has transferred.
      • Cut over applications to the Atlas cluster. Use the connect dialog instructions.

      Scope of changes (files that need work and how much)

      Original

      I filed in our report a problem feedback box but then it asked me to file in JIRA.. not sure where that went.

      Under "Using --uri:" we are missing the --archive params for both mongodump and mongorestore meaning this command will not work as written as far as I'm aware.
