Mongo instance Start
-------------------------------
[root@blpi241 bin]# ./mongod --config /opt/app/p3tda3c1/installables/mongod.conf
about to fork child process, waiting until server is ready for connections.
forked process: 25918
all output going to: /opt/app/p3tda3c1/logs/mongod.log
child process started successfully, parent exiting
[root@blpi241 bin]# ps -Af | grep "mongod"
root     25918     1  0 17:02 ?        00:00:00 ./mongod --config /opt/app/p3tda3c1/installables/mongod.conf

[root@blpi241 bin]#
[root@blpi241 bin]# service mongod stop
mongod: unrecognized service

Question
--------------------------------

1) why is "service mongod start" and "service mongod stop" not working?

2) root access will be revoked after 7 days. how should we manage the process after that?
