MongoDB Monitor

The MongoDB monitor in updu provides direct checking against MongoDB endpoints or clusters. It connects natively to the requested document database layer and issues a ping command on the admin schema.

Configuration Options

When setting up a Mongo monitor, you can configure the following options:

Basic Settings

• Name: A descriptive name for your monitor.
• Group: Optional group assignment for organizing monitors.
• Interval (seconds): How frequently updu should perform the check.
• Timeout (seconds): The maximum time updu will wait for a response before considering the check failed.

MongoDB Specific Settings

• Connection URI: The full connection URL to a cluster or server exposing the mongod instance. A standard prefix looks like mongodb://username:password@localhost:27017, while clustered setups rely on a slightly different structure such as mongodb+srv://admin:[email protected]/. updu extracts the parameters needed to verify the database and authenticate automatically from these URI patterns.

Example Use Cases

• Mongo Deployments: Ensure your MongoDB replica set is online and the primary is available to accept data operations.
