Starting multiple HomeBrew Services
I would like to run two different mongodb databases on my Mac. I installed mongodb with the HomeBrew manager. However I was unable to find a possibility to create new homebrew services. I already created the new config file and new location to store the data.

First, you are not able to use brew service
to start the two different mongodb
. Cause the LaunchAgent .plist
files have the same name. The former enable one will be overwritten by the latter one. Find the corresponding .plist
service file, copy it to ~/Library/LaunchAgents
as a different name.
Secondly, the service .plist
must be modified to use a different conf for mongodb
. It's impossible to make two daemons listen on the same port.
