Loading initial data and migrating data is covered by the same script.

Migrating the User Database

1. Stop the user-service.

   Stop the user-service before importing the data. Since the user-service caches the data on start-up, it would still rely on old data otherwise.

2. Extract the migration files for the user database. They are located in user_database_initialization.zip.
3. Transfer the migration files for the user database to the MongoDB host.

4. Migrate the data in your MongoDB installation.

   cd <your path to unzipped initial data>
   <path to your mongo db installation>/mongo --verbose setupInitialData.js

5. Start the user-service.
