What problem are you trying to solve?

Focus on the what and why of the need you have, not the how you'd like it solved.

Currently, MongoDB MMS automation agent will install MongoDB Tools package on every host when it installs MongoDB, there is no option to skip installation of MongoDB Tools. The version of MongoDB tools is determined only by the version of OpsManager that is being used. MongoDB Tools binaries are based on Go. Automatic vulnerability detection tools such as Wiz can flag vulnerabilities for the MongoDB Tools on basis of Go vulnerabilities (such as CVE-2025-47907)

What would you like to see happen?

Describe the desired outcome or enhancement.

We'd like to be able to:

1. Control the version of MongoDB Tools that is being installed, regardless of OpsManager version.

2. Allow OpsManager to control where MongoDB tools package is installed.

Why is this important to you or your team?

Explain how the request adds value or solves a business need.

We run automated vulnerability detection software in our cloud environment, this currently detects vulnerabilities in the MongoDB Tools package on every one of our MongoDB deployment hosts. Being able to choose where MongoDB Tools is installed (and which version) can limit exposure to these vulnerabilities.

What steps, if any, are you taking today to manage this problem?
