MongoDB collector
MongoDB is a source-available cross-platform document-oriented database program.
This module monitors one or more MongoDB instances, depending on your configuration. It collects information and
statistics about the server executing the following commands:
Prerequisites
Create a read-only user for Netdata in the admin database.
-
Authenticate as the admin user:
use admin
db.auth("admin", "<MONGODB_ADMIN_PASSWORD>")
-
Create a user:
db.createUser({
"user":"netdata",
"pwd": "<UNIQUE_PASSWORD>",
"roles" : [
{role: 'read', db: 'admin' },
{role: 'clusterMonitor', db: 'admin'},
{role: 'read', db: 'local' }
]
})
Metrics
All metrics have "mongodb." prefix.
- WireTiger metrics are available only if WiredTiger is used as the
storage engine.
- Sharding metrics are available on shards only
for mongos.
Labels per scope:
- global: no labels.
- lock type: lock_type.
- commit type: commit_type.
- database: database.
- replica set member: repl_set_member.
- shard: shard_id.

Configuration
Edit the go.d/mongodb.conf
configuration file using edit-config
from the
Netdata config directory, which is typically at /etc/netdata
.
cd /etc/netdata # Replace this path with your Netdata config directory, if different
sudo ./edit-config go.d/mongodb.conf
Needs only connection URI.
Here is an example for 2 servers:
jobs:
- name: local
uri: 'mongodb://user:password@localhost:27017'
databases:
include:
- "* *"
- name: remote
dsn: 'mongodb://user:password@203.0.113.10:27017'
databases:
include:
- "* *"
If no configuration is given, module will attempt to connect to mongodb daemon on 127.0.0.1:27017
address.
For all available options, see the mongodb
collector's configuration file.
Troubleshooting
To troubleshoot issues with the mongodb
collector, run the go.d.plugin
with the debug option enabled. The output
should give you clues as to why the collector isn't working.
-
Navigate to the plugins.d
directory, usually at /usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/
. If that's not the case on
your system, open netdata.conf
and look for the plugins
setting under [directories]
.
cd /usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/
-
Switch to the netdata
user.
sudo -u netdata -s
-
Run the go.d.plugin
to debug the collector:
./go.d.plugin -d -m mongodb
