The mongosync binary is in the bin/ directory of the unpacked tarball. To add the location of the mongosync binary to your PATH, do one of the following:

• Copy the binary into a directory listed in your PATH variable, such as /usr/local/bin. (Update /path/to/mongosync/bin to reflect the location where you extracted the tar file.)

  sudo cp /path/to/mongosync/bin/mongosync /usr/local/bin/

• Create symbolic links to the mongosync binary from a directory such as /usr/local/bin that is already in your PATH. (Update /path/to/mongosync/bin to reflect the location where you extracted the tar file.)

  sudo ln -s  /path/to/mongosync/bin/mongosync /usr/local/bin/mongosync
