INFO: MongoDB database tools need to be separately installed from MongoDB 4.4 onwards

Starting with MongoDB 4.4, the MongoDB Database Tools, which include mongodump, mongorestore, mongoexport, etc. are now released separately from the MongoDB Server and use their own versioning.  Previously, these tools were released as part of the MongoDB Server installation package.

Sage repackage and release the MongoDB installation package as part of our Sage X3 release, so from MongoDB 4.4 will mirror the MongoDB release mechanism, i.e. our MongoDB package release from 4.4 onwards does NOT include the MongoDB database tools.  Although now no longer included as part of the base MongoDB installation, these tools provide essential services, such as monitoring and backup mechanisms so recommend you download and install the latest versions for your MongoDB 4.4+ installations.

For more information you can review KB 114445 "MongoDB database tools need to be separately installed from MongoDB 4.4 onwards"

UPDATE: From MongoDB 4.4.12 package, the MongoDB tools ARE now included in the Sage package installer
