  1. Increase maximum retention periof of backups

    Currently OpsManager's maximum retention period for backups is 84 months (7 years). We have the requirement to keep 10 years of backups, hence adding some values (96, 108, 120, 132, 144) in the "Store monthly snapshots for... months" in the backup schedule would be helpful. Another option might be to allow custom values (I guess this is the purpose of https://feedback.mongodb.com/forums/924355-ops-tools/suggestions/39441955-make-snapshot-retention-policy-more-customisable)

  2. MongoDB Agent (Automation Module): don't attempt to auth with `net.tls.clusterFile` / `net.tls.certificateKeyFile` and use Agent X.509 cert

    Problem Statement,
    What is the problem? MongoDB Agent (Automation Module) attempts to auth with net.tls.clusterFile / net.tls.certificateKeyFile X.509 certificate first, pretending it is a Replica Set member.

    Why is this a problem? MongoDB Server process logs are flooded by unnecessary noise from such MongoDB Agent (Automation Module) auth attempts pretending it is Replica Set member. MongoDB Server will always log Replica Set member auth certificate usage outside of internal MongoDB Server client (https://github.com/mongodb/mongo/blob/6212e50e73dd032b448a514fe6893c6490a28a9f/src/mongo/db/commands/authentication_commands.cpp#L294-L300),

    Example,
    {"t":{"$date":"2021-05-10T11:08:03.110+0000"},"s":"W", "c":"ACCESS", "id":20430, "ctx":"conn116","msg":"Client isn't a mongod or mongos, but is connecting with a certificate with cluster membership"}

    Proposal,
    * Don't attempt to auth…

  5. 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)

  6. Ops Manager and attempts to stepDown

    When the majority commit point is not reached, Ops manager should refrain from any config change process like stepDown of a particular primary.

    Sometimes the number of attempts for stepDown can go upto 200 times and the duratio ncould be hours dependign on the data size.

    More details are present in the below ticket:

  7. The "Get All Network Peering Containers in One Project" endpoint should repo all endpoints regardless of the Public Cloud provider.

    In order to get back the peering list, one has to pass the provider
    shell
    mongocli atlas networking peering list --provider GCP

    This is odd because a) Atlas already knows and b) why not list all the peering regardless of the provider. We cannot specify filters in many cases already like, 'cluster list' and would have to use jq to filter. We can do the same here is folks really want to filter. In other words, in general, please stick to one design maxium, provide all items in the 'list' or provide a way to filter, but not both.

  8. Update MongoDB driver in Elastic metricbeat and validate operability with Atlas

    The metricbeat data collection agent from Elastic currently has a MongoDB module for capturing low level metrics from a MongoDB instance. It's using a very old MongoDB driver that doesn't work with recent versions, nor work with Atlas.

    I realize metricbeat isn't a MongoDB product or supported integration but it seems like it'd be low effort from an experienced Golang developer (which I am not) and remove an impediment from potential requirements around MongoDB metrics having to be captured using company-standard observability solutions. Thanks!

  9. list who is connected to a cluster

    Hello,

    On a sharded instance, I try to identify the connected physical people.
    It is not easy. I cannot identify my own connection. 😦

    Can we have a command to find out who is connected to the platform (excluding host2host connections, backup process, ...)?

    The closest command but not complete and friendly :
    use config
    DBQuery.shellBatchSize = 300
    db.system.sessions.aggregate( [ { $listSessions: { allUsers: true } },
    { $project: { _id: 0, "user":"$user.name" } } ,
    { $group : { _id: {"user": "$user" }, count: { $sum: 1 } } },

    ])

    Regards
    Jerome

  10. Performance Advisor should allow open each section indivirual

    Ops Manager 5.0.4.100.20211103T1316Z has now 3 sections in Performance Adviser.
    To see the results of one section I have to click on Recommendations.
    To see the results of the other section I have to go back (which triggers querying again) and click on the other recommendation.

    Currently it waists time and resource getting to the second recommendation. Why can't I just open it (e.g. in a separate browser tab)?

  11. mongo push

    Why doesn't MongoDB provide a tool (integrated or standalone) to operate document migration across on-prem (sharded) clusters? Suggestion might be to officially support tools like "mongo push", which may cover situations of hardware changes, production servers migration, re-sharding.

  12. Ops Manager: Test Failover

    The ability to Test Failover was added to Atlas https://docs.atlas.mongodb.com/tutorial/test-failover.

    Please add this functionality to Ops Manager in order to facilitate failover testing. This is especially useful in multi-tenant Ops Manager setups.

  13. 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.

  14. Add ability to create user credentials in different namespace then mongo cluster

    As the title states. I am creating my mongo cluster in a different namespace then my application, however because k8s does not allow sharing secrets between namespaces it is impossible to access the credentials.

    I suggest adding a namespace field inside of the users definition to allow the creation of the secret in another namespace.

  15. 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.

  16. 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.

  18. Timeline on Server internal authentication via Keyfile

    Hi Operator team,

    The K8s operator community edition README mentions the feature Server internal authentication via keyfile is in progress. My team is hoping to use this feature on our current project and wanted to ask what the timeline is for this. Is it likely to be included in the next release, and if so when is that release? Thanks!

  19. Ops Manager help with index compliance across cluster

    One of the problems is that we found some nodes would have indexes and others don't. Is there anything in Ops Manager to make sure that indexes are applied (in compliance) across all the nodes?

  20. Automation agent to use custom response header when using load balancer

    When we implement HA solution OPS Manager relies on some specific response headers configured in load balancer (like X-Forwarded-For). This config may not be possible for some types of load balancer. and it creates extra dependencies on third party implementations.

    Not having this config properly causes alerts whenever one of the OPS Manager applications/hosts goes down.

    it would be nice let automation agent to use custom header instead, so it will send specific any info required which OPS Manager needs.
