Note

Groups and projects are synonymous terms. Your {PROJECT-ID} is the same as your project id. For existing groups, your group/project id remains the same. This page uses the more familiar term group when referring to descriptions. The endpoint remains as stated in the document.

Update the configuration of a monitored MongoDB process.

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

Resource

PATCH /groups/{PROJECT-ID}/hosts/{HOST-ID}

Request Path Parameters

Parameter
Type
Necessity
Description
PROJECT-ID
string
Required
Unique identifier of the project that owns this MongoDB process.
HOST-ID
string
Required
Unique identifier of the host for the MongoDB process.

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
envelope
Expected response body
false

Request Body Parameters

Parameter
Type
Necessity
Description
alertsEnabled
boolean
Optional
Set to true if alerts should be enabled for this MongoDB process.
authMechanismName
string
Optional

Specify which authentication mechanism should be used to connect to this MongoDB process. Possible values are:

  • MONGODB_CR (This covers SCRAM-SHA-1, SCRAM-SHA-256, and MONGODB-CR.)

  • GSSAPI

  • PLAIN

  • MONGODB_X509

  • NONE

logsEnabled
boolean
Optional
Set to true if Ops Manager should collect logs for this MongoDB process.
password
string
Conditional
Password for connecting to this MongoDB process. Specify if "authMechanismName" : "MONGODB_CR" or "authMechanismName" : "SCRAM_SHA_1". However, it will never be exposed when a host entity is returned.
profilerEnabled
boolean
Optional
Set to true if Ops Manager collects profile information from this MongoDB process.
sslEnabled
boolean
Conditional
Set to true if TLS/SSL should be enabled for this MongoDB process. Set to true if "authMechanismName" : "MONGODB_X509".
username
string
Conditional
Username needed to connect to this MongoDB process. Specify if "authMechanismName" : "MONGODB_CR" or "authMechanismName" : "SCRAM_SHA_1".

If authMechanismName is NONE then any existing values for username and password are cleared. If authMechanismName is SCRAM-SHA-1, then you must provide both the username and password.

Response

Name
Type
Description
aliases
array of strings
Array of alternate hostname and port combinations that Ops Manager discovered for the MongoDB process. These combinations can include hostnames, FQDNs, IPv4 addresses, and IPv6 addresses.
alertsEnabled
boolean
true if this MongoDB process has alerts enabled.
authMechanismName
string

Authentication mechanism used to connect to this MongoDB process. This displays only one of the following values:

  • MONGODB_CR (This covers SCRAM-SHA-1, SCRAM-SHA-256, and MONGODB-CR.)

  • GSSAPI

  • PLAIN

  • MONGODB_X509

  • NONE

date
Date Ops Manager created or first discovered this MongoDB process.
groupId
string
Unique identifier of the group that owns this host.

boolean
true if this MongoDB process had startup warnings.
hidden
boolean
true if host is displayed in the Ops Manager UI. Hosts set to true are omitted from API responses.
