  1. Loadbalance functionality for Ops Manager

    When Ops Manager is under heavy load from many active database services, f.e. to handle backup snapshots, the recommendation from the case support portal is to use a loadbalancer in front of Ops Manager.
    It would be great, if Ops Manager could have this as an integrated functionality to forward connections from agents to additional Ops Manager instances.
    Background: Our nTSE did confirm, that we could set a different Ops Manager URL in the agent config, but the transferred data from this agent is still sent to the initially configured Ops Manager instance.

  2. Include Horizons as a replica set configuration option in the UI

    Replica Set horizons cannot be set through the UI currently. It is possible to set through the automationConfig via the API but this is complex.

    This would be useful for 2 use cases:
    1. When a cluster is self-managed and using technologies like AWS PrivateLink
    2. When a cluster is network isolated and connections must go through a proxy device

  4. Ops Manager: add LDAP timeout options

    Our LDAP server is quite slow, so we sometimes get technical errors when trying to log in our Ops Manager instance.

    We would need add an option to set LDAP server response timeout on Ops Manager side. It could be mms.ldap.timeoutMs.

    (I'm refering to Ops Manager authentication, not to MongoDB deployement authentication)

  5. Alerts: Webhook integration authentication with basic auth

    In secure environments, it is required that webhook endpoints are secured with basic authentication at a minimum. Currently, Webhook alerts only provides an HMAC-SHA-1 signature.

  7. Backup Resource Usage via Api

    In Ops Manager, it is not possible to obtain some data from each snapshot via api, it is only available in ops manager interface. It is a good a idea to obtain from each snapshot the information of the backup resource usage. The api could return this information: "Store Type, Store Id Live, Compressed Bytes Dead, Compressed Bytes Compression Ratio, Last Groom, Last Track"

  9. Ops manager Apps DB logs archival policy in mongod.conf

    I wanted to manage the Ops manager apps db logs in more refined by way by enabling "Size per Log Type in MB" and "Total Number of Files" settings in mongod.conf.
    How ever I don't see any options "Size per Log Type in MB" and "Total Number of Files" but same avaiable in ops manager UI for agent managed replica set. Do you have a plan to add these options in mongod.conf in future releases for apps DB?

  10. Automation - Monitor ulimit parameters for mongo processes

    MongoDB will abort if ulimit parameters are set too low. We should monitor parameters such as "open files" and add an alert for when the value approaches the ulimit configuration.

  12. Trigger replica set alerts for hidden secondaries

    We need to ability to trigger replica set alerts when a secondary that is hidden goes down.

    In this example an environment has 4 members, with one of them "hidden". We would like to be alerted even when the "hidden" secondary goes down.

    Currently alerts are only working for non-hidden members.

  13. Allow multiple authentication sources simultaneously

    Currently Ops Manager authentication supports either the Application Database, LDAP, or SAML, but these methods cannot be combined. Ideally we would like to move to LDAP, but we are stuck with the local authentication method as we depend on a local admin user which is used when first deploying and configuring the Ops Manager ecosystem. We also do not want to depend solely on the availability of the LDAP servers regarding an admin user. The MongoDB cluster deployments do support multiple authentication methods at the same time (we have local admin and monitoring accounts while users are authenticating via LDAP),…

  14. Ops Manager: more precise firewall configuration documentation

    Currently, it is not clear from the documentation what are the source hosts for each port to open. The diagram fills in a bit this imprecision, but it is not formal enough. Also, some ports need to be open only if certain features are needed (eg. download link for snapshots).

    This makes firewall configuration imprecise and experimental (or not as secure as it could be).

    Suggestion: each table of the the Ops Manager firewall configuration webpage should document those columns:
    - source component: client component(s)
    - target component: server component(s)
    - protocol: tcp/udp
    - port
    - feature: to specify if…

  15. Allow the use of symlinks within the Ops Manager directory

    Sometimes it would be great if we could move the conf, tmp, or logs directories to other filesystems and use symlinks so that Ops Manager doesn't have to worry about where the needed file physically are. Right now, Ops Manager refuses to start whenever this sort of redirection is done.

  17. Allow Ops Manager Data Explorer to read from Secondary nodes

    Ops Manager should allow Data Explorer to be configured with a Read Preferences and maxTimeMS options. Not having these options allows this tool to potentially trigger un-optimized queries to only hit primary nodes, which for high load production environments may cause un-expected problems.

  18. Add filters to Global alert screen in Ops Manager

    Add a filter for Global alert Configuration Page. It would be nice to have the ability to search for the specific alert to see if you have it configured and for which environments.

    A filter similar to what is seen on the "Open Alert" view would be sufficient.

    Since we are managing upwards of 50 deployments via Global Alerts this would be a useful feature.
