Fix Recommendation

Ensure a license agreement is still in effect and, if so, upgrade to a supported version of MongoDB.

Each major release of MongoDB has upgrade instructions. Follow the upgrade path/procedures for the version and configuration (standalone, replica set, sharded) of MongoDB accordingly.

If the license agreement with MongoDB has lapsed, contact MongoDB to license the use of a supported version.

Run the following command from the OS command line and review the "db version" listed in the output:
