    Supported MongoDB deployments¶

    Percona Backup for MongoDB doesn’t work on standalone MongoDB instances. This is because Percona Backup for MongoDB requires an oplog to guarantee backup consistency. Oplog is available on nodes with replication enabled.

    For testing purposes, you can deploy Percona Backup for MongoDB on a single-node replica set. ( Specify the replication.replSetName option in the configuration file of the standalone server.)
