This worked but make sure that when you say to do this:
mv /usr/bin/mongod mongod.bin
Be sure to be on the /usr/bin folder when doing so or do the following
mv /usr/bin/mongod /usr/bin/mongod.bin
I know what you are trying to say, but saying it like that is clear as mud..

What can I say or add to make it clearer?

this is a basic file move command. the source and destination are always relative to your
pwd
.It is totally poor form to discuss file source and destinations without clearly stating where to start, or explicitly noting them.
You also used the word "on" instead of "in" and did not syntax highlight what you are talking about.
Now based on the OP, and the lack of telling a user to be in the
/usr/bin
folder, the assumed intention here is to move and rename the existing/usr/bin/mongod
to~/mongod.bin
You are unclearly trying to state that you simply need to rename
mongod
tomongod.bin
while keeping it in the/usr/bin/
folder.@scottalanmiller needs to clarify his intent in the OP.

Reason for me to revisit this post was due to the following Ubiquiti forum post

Scott, why did you go with Ubuntu vs. Fedora? (Asking for a friend)

There are no official Unifi installers for RHEL or Fedora distributions.

Sorry, I meant Debian not Fedora.

Because Ubuntu is steaming dog poo?

Yeah, I followed your video and have mine on Debian, that's why I was wondering why Ubuntu.

Because it's the official OS of the product. Absolutely no reason to use Fedora here. Unifi only supports Ubuntu and Debian, and Jared and I have opposite views here. Ubuntu is the business product of the Debian family, Debian is the hobby project that is used as the basis for it. Debian is great, I love the project and they do great work, but it doesn't have primary vendor support, you are at the mercy of a hobby project. Ubuntu uses that basis and turns it into a production ready release with vendor and market support options.
Ubuntu isn't Fedora, but it's still extremely good.
