  2. Consider supporting the installation of mongosh via Ops Manager/automation agent

    Today, it is possible to install MongoDB software (mongoimport/export, mongodump/restore, mongo, bi connector) from Ops Manager via the automation agent.

    Ideally, it will be possible to have the same experience for the new MongoDB Shell (mongosh), so that customers don't need to put in place a separate set of processes nd scripts to install it.

  3. Add memory monitoring metrics

    Atlas -> please make buffers, cached, and MEM shared available under system memory metrics on Atlas for end users so we can calculate the criteria for auto scaling .

    Currently only Mongodb support can see these three metrics

  4. 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.

  5. Kubernetes Operator - Prefix Annotations and Labels

    Labels and annotations added to Kubernetes resources by the MongoDB Enterprise Operator should include a prefix designating that it was added by MongoDB. The lack of a prefix suggests the field and values are private to the user.

    For example, the MongoDB statefulset and service selector should use a label prefixed with a MongoDB domain.

    We're gradually starting to change things to prefix most annotations and labels with mdb.


    It's a gradual thing but in progress.

  6. Configure Ops Manager LDAP Auth via an API call

    Currently, there is no way to enable LDAP Auth for the Ops Manager Users via an API call.

    This essentially means that one would not be able to use LDAP and ci/cd simultaneously with Ops Manager.

    Mongodb enterprise support has confirmed that in the event of disaster recovery or a deployment of a new cluster, manual steps must be done to enable LDAP during a ci/cd deployment.

    It should not be expected to sign in and manually do anything in a web gui in an enterprise solution. It is simply not scalable.

  7. Ability to migrate from Ops Manager to Cloud Manager

    Clearly users of Ops Manager use it because they have a requirement, keep MongoDB clusters within their own infrastructure.

    Well, we have two solutions for that Ops Manager and also Cloud Manager. I personally think if we have automation in the product to move from the Ops Manager control plane to the Cloud Manager control plane it would make it easier for users to take advantage of MongoDB's backup infrastructure and keep updates coming without the hassle of managing it all by themselves.

  9. Show time it took to complete a snapshot

    In order to better troubleshoot snapshot performance issues, or maintain an understanding of how snapshots are performing and whether one is approaching a threshold where they wont be able to keep up, its a good idea to expose how long a snapshot took in the View All Snapshots page. This would also aid in quickly identifying which snapshots are full vs incremental.

  10. ops manager replica

    Is it possible to configure ops manager to allow “pre flight checks” to not fail with a single mongod configured as replica, but without any secondaries. i.e. only primary, which is allowed, because mongod runs anyway, even without P-S-S only P ?

  11. Provide AWS CloudFormation template starter

    It would make things easier for our users if they had at least a starter/example AWS CloudFormation template to use for provisioning AWS resources required for an Ops Manager deployment.

  12. MongoDB kubernetes operator - follow recommended kubernetes object labeling -

    Hi, i would like to thank you first for this operator, good job 👍 . It works well.

    Did you consider using this label convention for objects (statefulset, svc, secrets) https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/overview/working-with-objects/common-labels/?

    Currently in my cluster Im trying to follow these recommended labels for objects while Im forwarding kubernetes logs using EFK but cannot store log to elasticsearch because there is object mapping for kubernetes.labels.app field as object not a concrete value. Right now there is hard-coded service selector https://github.com/mongodb/mongodb-kubernetes-operator/blob/1aa7093d2cc977bc3b1f5a5fa7e1e902d37768c8/controllers/replica_set_controller.go#L455 which expects pods to be labeled with app=<serviceName>

    Example labels following conventions for statefulset:

    apiVersion: apps/v1
    kind: StatefulSet
    metadata:
      labels:

  14. Incorrect Agent version Alert/Banner

    If someone upgrades from Ops Manager v4.2 -> v4.4 and then downgrades by reinstalling Ops Manager v4.2, there is no Alert or Banner that the Agent is incompatible.

    Attempts to modify deployments with this incompatible Agent displays "Initializing Automation for your Deployment" but never actually does anything. It is only after reviewing the Ops Manager logs that you see "Unrecognized field".

    It would be helpful if there was a validation check that displays an Alert or Banner that indicates that the version of the Agent is unknown/incompatible. Perhaps something similar to what is displayed after upgrading Ops Manager that will…

  16. Disable Query Targeting: Scanned Objects / Returned alerts on specific, recurring aggregations.

    We run routine, recurring aggregation pipelines (essentially, summing up the values of different categories of transactions) on a 5-minute interval. These aggregation pipelines scan for all objects that match a certain type, then sum the cumulative value of certain values of those objects based on category. This means that we regularly have queries that scan >500,000 objects and consolidate them down to ~12 or so objects that are returned.

    In this specific case, I'm alright with the scan/return ratio being very high, and I don't want to be spammed with alerts every five minutes. However, I don't want to disable…

  17. SAML support in Ops Manager API

    SAML is available as an authentication mechanism and we're currently using it with keycloack (centralized identity provider).

    It works well with Ops Manager but there seems to be no support whatsoever in Ops Manager 4.4 API to programmatically add / update / delete SAML groups on Organizations or Projects.

    The official API documentation doesn't even recognize that SAML is available.

    Mongo support has confirmed that and it's a target feature in their internal backlog.
    This idea will hopefully speed up things.

  19. 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.
