Configure MongoDB Cloud Manager for Monitoring and Backup ========================================================= This document details the steps required to configure MongoDB Cloud Manager to enable monitoring and back up of data in a MongoDB Replica Set. Configure MongoDB Cloud Manager for Monitoring ---------------------------------------------- * Once the Monitoring Agent is up and running, open `MongoDB Cloud Manager `_. * Click ``Login`` under ``MongoDB Cloud Manager`` and log in to the Cloud Manager. * Select the group from the dropdown box on the page. * Go to Settings, Group Settings and add a Preferred Hostnames regexp as ``^mdb-instance-[0-9]{1,2}$``. It may take up to 5 mins till this setting is in effect. You may refresh the browser window and verify whether the changes have been saved or not. * Next, click the ``Deployment`` tab, and then the ``Manage Existing`` button. * On the ``Import your deployment for monitoring`` page, enter the hostname to be the same as the one set for ``mdb-instance-name`` in the global ConfigMap for a node. For example, if the ``mdb-instance-name`` is set to ``mdb-instance-0``, enter ``mdb-instance-0`` as the value in this field. * Enter the port number as ``27017``, with no authentication. * If you have TLS enabled, select the option to enable TLS/SSL for MongoDB connections. * Once the deployment is found, click the ``Continue`` button. This may take about a minute or two. * Do not add ``Automation Agent`` when given an option to add it. * Verify on the UI that data is being sent by the monitoring agent to the Cloud Manager. Configure MongoDB Cloud Manager for Backup ------------------------------------------ * Once the Backup Agent is up and running, open `MongoDB Cloud Manager `_. * Click ``Login`` under ``MongoDB Cloud Manager`` and log in to the Cloud Manager. * Select the group from the dropdown box on the page. * Click ``Backup`` tab. * Click on the ``Begin Setup``. * Click on ``Next``, select the replica set from the dropdown menu. * Verify the details of your MongoDB instance and click on ``Start`` again. * It might take up to 5 minutes to start the backup process. * Verify that data is being backed up on the UI.
