Add flexibility to disable and enable specific fetures of managing mongodb instance in OPS Manager (like user Sync)
Currently , Mongodb admin can not select to disable or enable feature after put mongodb manageed under OPS Manager. like security control .
Normally , Security control is not mongodb or Ops manager admin's responsibility , which is managed by a enterprice access control team.
1 , In opsmanager , there is not role for security control, like useradmin in mongodb.
2 , When ACCESS control team create role in mongodb. Ops Manager sycn it back.
3 , Opsmanager admin have to be engaged to work with ACCESS control team to complete the task.It is kind of not least…

ops manager agent support for Rocky Linux
Ops manager and Mongodb work on Rocky, but it seems there is no option for Rocky in the Ops Manager agent manifest, the current agent detects no Linux flavor for Rocky Linux. This already works on RHEL/CentOS and Rocky is supposed to be fully compatible with these OS's.

Set log file permissions using Ops Manager
Currently there is no way to set the log file permissions from Ops Manager and the default value is 600. Our organization uses Splunk and with the current settings the Splunk user is not able to read the log files. Config file options such as processUmask and honorSystemUmask can be used to change the log file permissions, but they will also change other files such as journal files, wiredtiger files, etc. The only option we have is to add the Splunk user to our role group in Unix, but this causes a security issue.

Allow drag-and-drop of metric graphs from different replica set members
Our use case is we have a replica set, but the east nodes and west nodes are on disk mounts with different names, so they won't appear on the same line in the Metrics tab. We should be able to drag and drop on a replica set member level, not just the metrics level. This allows more customization of metric graph layout.

“Content-Security-Policy” header
Hello,
We want to add the “Content-Security-Policy” header to the OpsManager/MongoDB answers to increase the security level:
frame-ancestors 'none' (Do not render in frames)
script-src 'self': only loads scripts originating on the site (subdomains excluded)
default-src 'none': recommended for services returning HTML.
Could you please tell us how to set up these elements ?Thank you in advance for your support.
Regards

OPS Manager should call updateUser to change password to trace it in DB Audit.
If you enable auditing in database, you can't trace change password actions. The reason is OPS Manager updates system.user collection record directly. as a result, this action is not traceble in audit if parameter auditAuthorizationSuccess is not enabled.
But enabling this parameter cause performance degradation as all DML/DDL will be sent through audit layer.
Dropping user at the same time happening as expected and traceable in audit files.

Documentation: API equivalents for each action on OpsManager
In the documentation, for each action on OpsManager it should be explained how to achieve the same result using the OpsManager API (or an equivalent mongocli command, if it exists).
For example, in the pages describing how to configure Backup stores in the OpsManager UI, it should also be explained which APIs to use (admin/backup).2 votes -
Agent authentication to opsmanager using x509 credentials
Similar to how Opsmanger can use x509 to manage deployments, it should be possible to configure the agents to use x509 credentials to communicate with Opsmanager. This will allow for a more consistent security posture across the whole mongodb/opsmanager stack. It would also simplify security procedures such as credential rotation by unifying the authentication mechanism.
This will be an alternative to the existing API Key approach https://www.mongodb.com/docs/ops-manager/current/tutorial/manage-agent-api-key/index.html

Use different method for Slack notifications
At the moment in integration manager for Slack there is only option to use obsolete webhook method which allows sending notification to single Slack channel configured for this webhook. There is (not that) new API method https://api.slack.com/methods/chat.postMessage which allows sending notification to multiple channels. This is extremely useful if you for example want to differentiate alerts based on its kind or severity. There is also option to use Webhook method in MongoDB but it doesn't support Slack. So please either add support for new API method or make Webhook method supporting Slack so at least two Slack channels will be…

Providing a grafana dashboard for an on-premise cluster
It would be interesting to provide a grafana dashboard when integrating with prometheus.
The documentation is indeed very limited concerning metrics when you're on a mongoDB on premise cluster.

Ability to remove parameter tlsCertificateKeyFilePassword from Advanced configuration
Currently the behavior around this parameter is tricky -once you added this parameter to advanced config - you can't remove it. if you try to remove it - OPS Manager simply ignores this action and when you run "Review and Deploy" - it displays nothing but still let you deploy this "nothing". similar if you want to set the value of this parameter to empty string from something - OPS Manager ignores it and deploy empty list of actions.
the workaround is to remove both tlsCertificateKeyFile and tlsCertificateKeyFilePassword in advanced config, but don't deploy it. then add back tlsCertificateKeyFile parameter…

add clusterId to json output of "cluster list", "cluster describe" commands
currently there is no straightforward way to get clusterId using mongocli. we can get clusterId if we use text format with "cluster list", but not with json.
and with json format we have to use "process list" command, filter out only one process amongst multiple within cluster and filter out clusterId.
it would be useful to add clusterId field into json when we get cluster description from list/describe commands also.

add text option to --output modifier
currently there is no way to format output of command in text format. the only option is to set this format as default in config file and not use --output modifier in specific command. if you rare use text output, you will have to insert --output json in every other commands.

Ops Manager API should be authenticated via Certificate
Ops Manager API uses HTTP Digest Authentication, this method requires a username and a password which are hashed and provided in the form of registered Ops Manager account, and the password which is a Public API Key associated with that account.
But as part of security feature we should be allowed to use Authentication based on SSL certificates as we are using for Client connection, This will help to secure the self automation process if we are developing any internally.

When changing snapshot retention, prompt user to apply new policy to existing snapshots
Currently when you change the snapshot schedule, the changes only apply to NEW snapshots.
Please allow the user the option to apply the new policy automatically to all existing snapshots. Or at the very least, notify them of them of snapshots that exist which do not meet the current policy!
Let me provide an example of the problem. If you have a retention policy of 10 days and on DAY1 you change it to 30 days, your retention will look like this:
DAY1 - 10 snapshots
DAY2 - 10 snapshots
...
DAY10 - 10 snapshots
DAY11 - 11 snapshots
DAY12…1 vote -
Lock enableLocalConfigurationServer setting on OPS Manager side
To harden security for mongodb deployment managed by OPS Manager, we can use setting enableLocalConfigurationServer = true so automation-mongod.conf won't have any passwords for ssl certs and agent will retrieve them from OPS Manager.
to disable this feature and to read all passwords for ssl certs (and hence get access to mongodb data) it's enough to comment out this parameter an restart automation service (or wait until host will be restarted).
Linux root user can modify any file on mongodb host including this file and can restart any services, so it's impossible to protect getting all passwords and mongod.conf from…

Authentication support for OpenID connect (OIDC)
I would like to connect to MongoDB as part of a Terraform IaC project from bitbucket pipelines. Currently this is possible only through API keys.
It would be great if there was support for OIDC as it provides rotated keys and solid support of various pipelines (GitHub actions, Bitbucket pipelines, ...). Also with OIDC the client is not exposed to any credentials, so this would allow for a "zero-trust" approach when it comes to IaC (Infrastructure as Code).

I found what I believe to be an error in the following document
I found what I believe to be an error in the following document.
https://www.mongodb.com/docs/ops-manager/current/tutorial/install-simple-test-deployment/In the section "5. Create the Ops Manager Application Database directory," it instructs to execute the following command
sudo chown -R mongod:mongod /dataIn my environment, the mongod user does not exist and I get an error, but looking at the passwd file, the mongodb user and mongodb group seem to exist. The version is 11.7.
I think the correct command is as follows
sudo chown -R mongodb:mongodb /data1 vote
