I’m testing Graylog 5 beta and MongoDB 5.

I’m following [this](https://docs.graylog.org/docs/upgrade-mongodb-4x-5x) document to upgrade from MongoDB 4.4 to 5.0.

When starting MongoDB I’m getting an error about MongoDB 5 and higher requiring AVX CPU support. My hypervisor doesn’t pass this CPU instruction through, so I need to update my VM config.

- [MongoDB 5.0 CPU Intel G4650 compatibility - #2 by Stennie - Installation & Upgrades - MongoDB Developer Community Forums](https://www.mongodb.com/community/forums/t/mongodb-5-0-cpu-intel-g4650-compatibility/116610/2)
- [Mongo 5.0.0 crashes but 4.4.6 works · Issue #485 · docker-library/mongo · GitHub](https://github.com/docker-library/mongo/issues/485#issuecomment-891991814)

You may want to add a warning to Graylog’s MongoDB upgrade docs about MongoDB’s AVX requirements with the 5.x and higher releases. I can imagine people running Graylog/Mongo in virtual machines that don’t expose specific CPU instructions (like me) will need to know this.

Hey @lmm5247  
Quick question on this, since it seams we might have same environment.  
Have you posted this in GitHub?

- [Issues · Graylog2/graylog2-server · GitHub](https://github.com/Graylog2/graylog2-server/issues)

The reason I stated this is because _Graylog 5 Beta 4 i_s out today and it may help the dev’s identify this better on GitHub.

I am getting mongodb avx error 132 which seems to be related to this. Looks like I need downgrade my mongodb level. Any ideas how I do this please?
