# Where and how to store data.
#
# Live inside our playspace in /home/variant-server/database
# the "live" symlink should point to the current version of
# the data. A new version might be set some time on a running
# server, and mongod briefly stopped, this link moved, and
# then restart mongod. Also suspend (SIGSTOP) uWSGI at this 
# time which will cause web queries to pause seeming like 
# they are taking a long time to load, as long as you can do
# the mongo switch fast enough. If you stop nginx then clients
# will get connection refused until nginx is restarted. If you
# kill uWSGI, then nginx will give Bad Gateway returns until
# it is restarted.

# disable journaling, we will typically do a bulk load that either succeeds
# entirely for the dataset, or fails and then we'd start it over again
# from the beginning, not really knowing where to restart it. Journaling
# will just slow down the bulk load.
