Configures one new blockstore.

Base URL: https://{OPSMANAGER-HOST}:{PORT}/api/public/v1.0/admin/backup

Resource

POST /snapshot/mongoConfigs

Request Path Parameters

This endpoint doesn't use HTTP request path parameters.

Request Query Parameters

The following query parameters are optional:

Name
Type
Necessity
Description
Default
pretty
boolean
Optional
Flag indicating whether the response body should be in a prettyprint format.
false
envelope
boolean
Optional

Flag that indicates whether or not to wrap the response in an envelope.

Some API clients cannot access the HTTP response headers or status code. To remediate this, set envelope=true in the query.

For endpoints that return one result, the response body includes:

Name
Description
status
HTTP response code
content
Expected response body
false

Request Body Parameters

Name
Type
Description
assignmentEnabled
boolean
Optional. Flag indicating whether this blockstore can be assigned backup jobs.
encryptedCredentials
boolean
Optional. Flag indicating whether the username and password for this blockstore were encrypted using the credentialstool.
id
string
The unique name that labels this blockstore.
labels
array of strings

Optional. Array of tags to manage which backup jobs Ops Manager can assign to which blockstores.

Setting these tags limits which backup jobs this blockstore can process. If omitted, this blockstore can only process backup jobs for projects that do not use labels to filter their jobs.

loadFactor
number

Optional. A positive, non-zero integer that expresses how much backup work this snapshot store should perform compared to another snapshot store. This option is needed only if more than one snapshot store is in use.

To learn more about Load Factor, see Edit One Existing Blockstore.

maxCapacityGB
number
Optional. The maximum amount of data in GB this blockstore can store.
uri
string
A comma-separated list of hosts in the <hostname:port> format that can be used to access this blockstore.
ssl
boolean
Optional. Flag indicating whether this blockstore only accepts connections encrypted using TLS.
writeConcern
string

Optional. The write concern used for this blockstore.

The accepted values for this option are:

  • ACKNOWLEDGED

  • W2

  • JOURNALED

  • MAJORITY

To learn about write acknowledgement levels in MongoDB, see Write Concern.
