Configure Project Alerts
On this page
You can use Atlas Kubernetes Operator to configure alerts to help you monitor access to and the state of the database deployments in your Atlas projects.
To learn more, see Configure Alert Settings.
Considerations
In your AtlasProject
Custom Resource, use the
spec.alertConfigurationSyncEnabled
and
spec.withDefaultAlertsSettings
settings to
manage Atlas alert configurations. The following
table describes the action that Atlas Kubernetes Operator takes based on
how you configure these settings:
spec.alertConfigurationSyncEnabled | spec.withDefaultAlertsSettings | Behavior |
---|---|---|
true | true | Atlas Kubernetes Operator creates a project using the default alert configuration.
After Atlas Kubernetes Operator creates the project, the alert confgurations that
you define in your AtlasProject Custom Resource override
the alert configurations on Atlas for your project. |
true | false | Atlas Kubernetes Operator creates a project without adding the default alert configurations.
After Atlas Kubernetes Operator creates the project, the alert confgurations that
you define in your AtlasProject Custom Resource override
the alert configurations on Atlas for your project. |
false | true | Atlas Kubernetes Operator creates a project using the default alert configuration.
Atlas Kubernetes Operator doesn't syncronize alert definitions on Atlas with those
you define in your AtlasProject Custom Resource. |
false | false | Atlas Kubernetes Operator creates a project without adding the default alert configurations.
Atlas Kubernetes Operator doesn't syncronize alert definitions on Atlas with those
you define in your AtlasProject Custom Resource. |
Prerequisites
You need the following public API key, private API key, and the organization ID information to configure Atlas Kubernetes Operator access to Atlas.
If you want Atlas Kubernetes Operator to create a new Atlas project, Grant Programmatic Access to an Organization. If your organization requires an IP access list for the Atlas Administration API, you must also configure the API access list.
Important
You must assign the API key the Organization Project Creator organization role or higher.
If you want to work with an existing Atlas project, Add Project Access from a Project. If your organization requires an IP access list for the Atlas Administration API, you must also configure the API access list.
Important
You must assign the API key the Project Owner project role.
To learn more, see Configure Access to Atlas.
Procedure
To configure project alerts, configure the
AtlasProject
Custom Resource.
Example:
cat <<EOF | kubectl apply -f - apiVersion: atlas.mongodb.com/v1 kind: AtlasProject metadata: name: my-project spec: name: TestAlertConfig connectionSecretRef: name: my-atlas-key projectIpAccessList: - cidrBlock: "0.0.0.0/1" comment: "Everyone has access. For test purposes only." - cidrBlock: "128.0.0.0/1" comment: "Everyone has access. For test purposes only." alertConfigurations: - eventTypeName: "REPLICATION_OPLOG_WINDOW_RUNNING_OUT", enabled: true, notifications: - delayMin: 0 emailEnabled: true intervalMin: 60 roles: [ "GROUP_OWNER" ] smsEnabled: false typeName: "GROUP" threshold: operator: "LESS_THAN", threshold: 1, units: "HOURS" alertConfigurationSyncEnabled: true withDefaultAlertsSettings: false EOF
The parameters that you must specify in the
AtlasProject
Custom Resource depend on the alert
that you want to configure.
To learn more about the configuration parameters available from the API, see Alert Configurations.
