  1. MongoDB Tools Apple Silicon native version

    6.0 now has a native release for Apple Silicon, but the tools are still compiled for x86_64. The https://github.com/mongodb/mongo-tools/blob/master/PLATFORMSUPPORT.md seems to point towards new platform support on internal systems like https://evergreen.mongodb.com/distros - can we get a native build of the tools ?

  2. Add cluster_id parameter in host detail API

    As per the link https://www.mongodb.com/docs/ops-manager/current/reference/api/measures/get-host-process-system-measurements/ and below API :

    curl --user "{PUBLIC-KEY}:{PRIVATE-KEY}" --digest
    --header "Accept: application/json"
    --include
    --request GET "https://{OPSMANAGER-HOST}:{PORT}/api/public/v1.0/groups/{PROJECT-ID}/hosts/{HOST-ID}/measurements?granularity={TIME-INCREMENT}&period={PERIOD}}&pretty=true"

    This will give us the details pertaining to one host and one project. However what if one host has multiple processes and part of multiple replica sets within same project in OPS Manager? Then it becomes difficult to gather gather data. Hence a clusterid parameter should also be added to distinguish details based on host pertaining to which cluster or replica set along with projectid which is already present.

  5. rename action for backup daemon "delete daemon" to "deactivate daemon"

    when you press link "delete daemon" on Admin->Backup->Daemons page it "deletes" daemon from this page, but after mongodb-mms.service gets restarted, this daemon comes up again. this link does not delete daemon - it actually deactivate backup daemon. another part for deactivation of daemon is to modify settings for service mongodb-mms to start only mms application without daemon.

  6. trigger a queryable Backup Snapshot restore via Ops Manager public API

    We would like to periodically provision queryable snapshots on a programmatic basis (aka Ops Manager public API call) to easily get a consistent dump of sharded clusters in order to put those dumps in a "very safe location". We want to use this as part of a last resort backup strategy. The idea is that a dump is much easier to be restored by a "last resort restore app" compared to the http-downloaded plain data files.

    One other option to extract the contents of a sharded cluster would be to use "Long Running Queries" but this cannot be used along…

  7. mongocli - changing server type

    There is a missing option to change server type via mongocli. You can list the server type for the project, but not change it.

    available option for list:
    mongocli om serverUsage projects hosts list --endDate 2020-01-01 --startDate 2021-01-01

  9. Deploy Changes without restarting mongod/mongos instance immediately.

    Whenever we want to make changes, eg. set a new parameter or add new parameter in configuration (advance configuration options), after we save changes, review and deploy, automation immediately starts applying that change and does a rolling restart.
    We need flexibility in restart, means one should have an option to perform immediate rolling restart or defer it to later time. We may apply multiple changes at different times and set one preferred window to restart instance instead of doing multiple restarts.

  10. Logging: attr.error field type conflicts

    Hey!

    We are using fluent-bit to push MongoDB logs to Elasticsearch. When there are already logs in the elastic index, where attr.error is an object, then it does not accept log lines in which this field is a string:

    “error”:{“type”:“mapperparsingexception”,“reason”:“object mapping for [attr.error] tried to parse field [error] as object, but found a concrete value”}

    There is log with string attr.error:

    {“t”:{"$date":“2022-05-13T15:16:31.203+00:00”},“s”:“I”, “c”:“CONNPOOL”, “id”:22572, “ctx”:“MirrorMaestro”,“msg”:“Dropping all pooled connections”,“attr”:{“hostAndPort”:“mongodb-1.mongodb-headless.mongodb.svc.cluster.local:27017”,“error”:“ShutdownInProgress: Pool for mongodb-1.mongodb-headless.mongodb.svc.cluster.local:27017 has expired.”}}

    There is log with object attr.error:

    {“t”:{"$date":“2022-05-13T15:20:56.857+00:00”},“s”:“I”, “c”:“REPL_HB”, “id”:23974, “ctx”:“ReplCoord-680”,“msg”:“Heartbeat failed after max retries”,“attr”:{“target”:“alerta-mongodb-arbiter-0.alerta-mongodb-arbiter-headless.monitoring. svc.cluster.local:27017”,“maxHeartbeatRetries”:2,“error”:{“code”:93,“codeName”:“InvalidReplicaSetConfig”,“errmsg”:“replica set IDs do not match, ours: 61ea35f29cfd494fef169571; remote node’s: 61eef8589d065c56e61d6e52”}}}…

  11. Multiple webhook URLs

    At the moment only one webhook URL can be configured for one Ops Manager project.
    It would be nice if multiple URLs could be used to send the alert to different endpoints by using f.e. a delimiter character inside the config.
    Thanks and regards

  12. Ops Manager to be able to do archiving of Data to a different replica set than you Prod replica set.

    To be able to set up Archiving in Ops Manager so you would be able to keep a certain amount of data in Prod and move the rest of to an Archiving replica set.

  14. Include "Fetch Time" in Profiler timings

    When we run the Profiler, the runtime of "select" type queries are dramatically understated. This is because the Profiler only counts the time of the "query", and doesn't include how long it took to "fetch" the result set.

    In one of our test cases, we "tuned" the query so it only shows as running 82 ms in the Profiler. However, when we actually run this same query in JavaScript, the runtime is 10 seconds. This is a very slow query which our end users experience many times a day.

    Is there a way to configure Profiler to be more realistic,…

  17. Do not start backups for Sharded clusters unless all requirements are met

    With FCV > 4.2, Backups requires the backup module to be activated on at least one member per shard for sharded clusters but it also doesn't stop one from starting backups if the backup module is activated only on one member of the entire sharded cluster, for example, activating the backup module on a single member of the config server replica set and not on any member of the shards allow for one to start backups.

    Currently, if backups are enabled and at least one of the Replica sets in the Cluster has a backup module, backups will start for…

  18. Allow Regexp, or other solution, to look for groups in "SAML Group Member Attribute" field

    The Ops Manager authentification process through SAML requires that the user's groups are specified in a dedicated SAML attribute sent by the IDP, so the user can connect to Ops Manager.

    For this need, our IDP can only provide a field that contains free text. This field can contain many information, and can include special characters. We can add the Ops Manager groups in this field, among the existing text information.

    However we need Ops Manager to parse this free field and get the groups information, which is not possible for now.

    That's why we would like the implementation of…

  19. Present MongoDB clients metadata on Ops Manager UI

    Before MongoDB version upgrades we should verify all drivers compatibility for the new version.

    It is sometimes difficult to track all of the drivers used connecting to the deployments. Currently it requires parsing of multiple mongos/mongod logs for client connections or internal code investigations.

    Suggestion

    It may be beneficial to collect and present clients statistics (version, type, IP) data on Ops Manager.

    Maybe this could be a feature that can be toggled on demand.
