Build Ops Manager packages for ARM architecture
The new Graviton instance types in AWS seem very promising from a cost/peformance perspective. We would love to be able to run our Ops Manager cluster on these new instance types, but there currently aren't any packages available for ARM architectures!

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…

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.5 votes -
Reset duplicates button for Ops Manager Admin System overview page
Sometimes customer want to clean up the System Overview page and/or the application db from because:
- They dismissed one or more Ops Manager server running Application servers or backup daemon components
- Their hostnames / domains have changed over the time
- Their hostnames have changed from lowercase to capital letters or vice versa because upgrading Ops Manager brought a JVM providing different values for getHostname() (this happens often in Windows environment).It would be nice to have a button or at least an API call similar to the project reset duplicates that forces Ops Manager to refresh the…

Add to the Continues Backup UI more information about the snapshots
Currently, the Ops Manager UI under Continues Backup only shows the following information about the snapshots:
- Replica set name
- Status
- Last Snapshot
- Last Oplog SliceIt would be very helpful to also see:
- Start date/time
- Finish date/time
- Backup duration
- Snapshot size5 votes -
index review before sharding with OPS Manager
Currently, when you use OPS Manager to shard a collection, it automatically creates a foreground index that exactly matches the sharding key, when such index doesn't exist. When the sharding key column(s) is(are)already prefixing an existing index, it's not sufficent.
This is dangerous in Live environments because the whole database is blocked for a long time (sharded collections are usually big collections).
So, several features could exist :
- before continuing with sharding, OPS Manager warns that it needs to create this foreground index first. You can stop if you don't agree (and create this index by yourself first).

Add 4.4 tool to PATH
Since MongoDB 4.4 the tools are located in another folder that is not included in the automation agent bash profile:
[root@n1 mongodb-mms-automation]# cat /etc/profile.d/mongodb-mms-automation-agent.sh
export PATH=/var/lib/mongodb-mms-automation/bin:${PATH}Would be nice to have also the mongo tools in the path

Binaries should be provided via Docker images
To implement this in a Kubernetes native way for offline deployments, the binaries should be provided as Docker images and distributed through the Docker repositories that are already present in the k8s environment.
Option 1 (intermediate): Allow Mount of Docker images in the MongoDBOpsManager resource for the path defined in automation.versions.directory. This would allow us to pre-package the binaries needed and bring up the OpsManager in a kubernetes native way. Everything else (e.g. agent downloading the tgz) would stay the same and still be the "OpsManger-way".
Option 2 (long term): The MongoDB TGZ package is provided as Docker image by…

Periodically notify users of unused versions located in versions directory
As a safety measure for admins in Ops Manager to avoid facing issues due to unnecessary disk occupation under the Ops Manager installation directory:
Send periodic notifications (configurable) i.e: once a month; to notify what binaries are not being used by none of the components in their environment so they can evaluate to delete them in order to free up space on their Ops Manager servers.

Supporting the installation of mongosh in Ops Manager Local Mode
Ops Manager v6.0+ supports installing the new mongo shell (mongosh) to the deployment nodes. This feature is not supported in Ops Manager Local Mode.
It would be convenient to the Ops Manager Automation user if they could upload the mongosh binary to the Ops Manager Versions Directory and Ops Manager will install the binary to the deployment nodes similar to the MongoDB Binary and MongoDB Database Tools.
Currently, the customer with Local Mode needs to manage the installation of mongosh outside of Ops Manager Automation.

Send activity feed event by email similar to Alerts
We need to be informed and or react on some activity feed events. So we want to either be able to configure alert on specific activity type and/or be able to push activity feeds somewhere similar to alerts. then we would be able to configure actions based on activity type.

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.

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…

Profiler and Performance Advisor without Automation
Currently it is required to enable automation on a cluster in order use the Profiler/Performance Advisor.
https://docs.opsmanager.mongodb.com/current/tutorial/profile-database/
https://docs.opsmanager.mongodb.com/current/tutorial/performance-advisor/
As automation is sometimes not desired for a cluster, please add the ability to Profile Databases and use Performance Advisor when a cluster is monitored only.

Include CPU usage in Sharded Cluster Monitoring Overview
In the sharded cluster monitoring overview it would be useful to also have the option to display the Process CPU usage to quickly identify shards which have a higher CPU load. Other hardware metrics might be useful as well.

Change MongoDB Log Settings via API
You can set MongoDB log rotation for mongod process on project level in the Ops Manager through: Deployment -> More -> MongoDB Log Settings. However there is no option to set it via API.
It looks like there is option to set this parameters on process level (in the Automation Config), but Ops Manager is not accepting new value, like it does when setting values for Monitoring Log rotation and Backup Log rotation.
It would be great to have option to automate this when creating a new project via API and setting all other attributes with script.4 votes
