  1. On demand snapshots in Ops Manager

    Allow the possibility of performing a snapshot on-demand.

    Usually the snapshot time ends too far away in time after configuration changes of the backup job (i.e: changing the block size). For testing purposes it would make sense to allow performing a snapshot on-demand to get it generated and proceed with further testing/tuning if required.

  2. Allow Ops Manager users to move/migrate backup job snapshots from one S3 bucket to a different S3 bucket

    Ops Manager users with S3 blockstores may need to move snapshots and backup jobs to a new S3 bucket. For MongoDB blockstores, this is accomplished using a groom.

    Move Blocks to a Different Blockstore
    https://docs.opsmanager.mongodb.com/current/core/administration-interface/#groom-priority-page

    This feature request is to provide the same feature to groom backup snapshots/jobs to a new bucket for S3 blockstores.

    Hi All,


    We have developed a solution directly in Ops Manager that will support transitioning your S3-compatible snapshot storage without terminating the backup. Ops Manager will allow you to update the S3 snapshot store ID in the backup job document and the next scheduled snapshot will be a full snapshot in the new S3 snapshot store after the update. This is specifically for S3 stores only at this time.


    This feature is included in the Ops Manager 8.0.6 release that came out on April 3rd, 2025. 


    Information about this feature can be found in these documents:
