  1. Support node type or node tags as condition in MongoDB Atlas Alert

    Currently, the MongoDB Atlas does not support the node types [1] or node tags [2] as the condition in Atlas alerts. That would be super inconvenient for the following scenarios.

    Scenario 1: If the user wants to create an alert to monitor the specific node type, such as READ_ONLY node or ANALYTICS nodes, there is no convenient way to achieve it. The current approach must set up the alert by using the hardcode hostname.

    Scenario 2: If the user has some electable nodes and a analytics node in a cluster, and wants to focus on monitoring the electable nodes (workload),…

  2. Active link on closed alerts

    Currently closed alerts are just a simple text card unlike open alert which does have links. This functionality should be available in closed alert as well.

  3. Don't cut alert names

    This is very hard to figure out what these alert mean, I have to go to the documentation and match them somehow, but it also looks like the documentation is not up to date.

  4. Include Human-Friendly Cluster Names in Alert Notifications

    Please include the human-friendly cluster/host names in Monitoring Alert Notifications (e.g. email, PagerDuty, etc) in addition to, or instead of, the less clear internal cluster/hostnames (i.e. atlas-abcdef-shard-0).

  5. Alerts Messaging Customization

    At the moment, it appears one cannot customize the messaging or subject line of the alerts. This makes it difficult to categorize the alerts. For instance, we would like to categorize alerts into different severity levels, such that severity level will help determine the level of attention that is paid to the alerts when they trigger. If it is possible to prefix or append some customization code and message to either the subject line and/or actual message, then a monitoring team can use the custom code/message to determine the severity or category of the alert when it triggers.

  6. Billing Alerts Improvement

    We find the conditions for billing alerts to be very limited. We were hoping we would be able to setup an alert that triggers when a certain threshold of our total subscription amount has been used for better monitoring. For example, >= 75% of the total subscription amount is used.

  7. Project Alerts: show details about "Closed Alerts"

    In "Project Alerts" we can only see certain details about "Closed Alerts," e. g. for an "Index Suggestion" we can only see the timestamp and the fact, that there was an index suggestion. You can't see what the specific suggestion was. So if you look through the history of alerts, you cannot tell if for multiple alerts it was always about the same index to be created, or whether it was for different indexes.

    Likewise, for "Daily amount billed ($) is above threshold" you can see that the threshold was exceeded, but you can't see what the specific billed amount…

  8. Add the ability to trigger alerts for testing purposes

    It would be useful to have a "Test Alert" button for each configured alert in order to integrate and test alerts with third-party systems. Otherwise, it is difficult if not impossible to determine what the alert will look like until it is triggered.

  9. Alert setup for failed logins

    There is no good monitoring or alert functionality for dealing with potential invalid login attempts.

    I suggest an alert setup to handle events when known users fail more than 3 times to login (either in Atlas or via driverlogin to db).

    We have had an external audit done and this is something they have found as a shortage in the MongoDB Atlas environment.

    Log files are good but not to monitor potential security issues

  12. Add alerts on disk IOPS and CPU IOWAIT %

    To help catch heavy disk workloads before they become problematic, it would be great to have alerts on:
    - disk IOPS percentage utilization for disks without burstable IOPS
    - burst credit utilization for disks with burstable IOPS
    - CPU IOWAIT %

  13. Atlas alerts - include duration and date/time alert was closed

    currently alerts (sent to SLACK but probably other formats as well) reads this:

    Project: OS1

    Organization: SE Atlas

    CLOSED
    Host is down
    OS1-g-shard-18-05.bxxxxq.gcp.mongodb.net
    Created: 2020/06/11 03:44 BST

    Type: Mongos

    It would be helpful to also include:
    Closed: 2020/06/11 07:44 BST
    Duration: 1h 53m

    As the slack is usually set to each users timezone it creates a confusion when one is looking at how long issue lasted.
    This should be easy to implement and it would improve end user experience a lot.

    Same would be nice on Atlas 'closed alerts' tab - there seems to be no way currently to get…

  14. Improvement: Add severity to alert definitions in Atlas MongoDB

  15. add details to alert Query Targeting: Scanned / Returned to identify what triggered it

    If you want to catch full scan on collection you could set up alert "Query Targeting: Scanned / Returned > 1".
    OPS Manager does not provide any details where it was triggered.
    it would be nice to get db/collection/query which caused this issue. Query still can be fast (for example, not many document in collection yet or hardware is idle/fast at the moment) and will not go to slow operation group.

  16. Allow Billing Alerts per Project

    Currently, we can configure Atlas to send an alert when the current bill for any project is above a specific amount. It would be great to be able to set alerts for specific projects. This way we could more easily manage budget fors projects and alert project owners.

  18. Alerts change from time based pattern to include actual alert in subject

    So far we are receiving atlas alerts in time based manner which are difficult to undersatnd/analyze just by looking at email subject.

    We are expecting a model in which we want to Separate alerts for each instance instead of combining alerts on a single time frame and Changing email alert subject to include alert description. This will allows us to understand the alert by looking at email subject , combine/view all alerts in email client (for example outlook) , write some rules on them and analyze the alert timing pattern by sorting and group by alert description.

    For example,

  19. Email subject more specific for Alerts

    The email Alerts that MongoDB provide are very useful, especially the Oplog and CPU Usage. However, the subject of the emails are not clear and does not specify the Alert type. It is just a generic "Alert". It would be great if MongoDB can add "Alert Oplog" or "Alert CPU Usage" to the email subjects to make them much more clear and helpful. Thanks!

  20. MMS Alert for Balancer Down status

    please provide an option in Ops Manager to monitor the balancer status and add to alerts?
    So, we will know if balancer is not running.

    Note:
    Normally the balancer would be disabled during backups and during a scheduled Balancing Window downtime.
    I believe that the Balancer has a duty cycle of either 10 secs when nothing recently to balance, or 1 sec when there's a bunch of balancing to do.
    Any alert would need to account for these:
    the changelog shows chunk moves commanded
    the actionlog shows balancer state change history
    the settings collection has the balancer state
