mongocli ops-manager metrics disks describe

On this page

  • Syntax
  • Options
  • Output
  • Example

The metrics disks describe command lists the available metrics for a specified partition on a specified Ops Manager host. You can get a list of partition names for a host with the metrics disks list command. You can get the host IDs associated with a particular Ops Manager project with the process list command.

mongocli ops-manager|om metrics disks describe <hostID> <partition-name>
--granularity <granularity>
--period <period>
--start <start>
--end <end>
[--limit <number>]
[--page <number>]
[--type <type>]
[ --output|-o <output-format> ]
[ --profile|-P <profile-name> ]
[ --projectId <project-ID> ]

Note

Use -h or --help to view the command-line help for this command.

Note

You must specify either:

  • period or

  • start and end.

Option
Type
Description
Required?
<partition-name>
string
The name of the disk or partition for which to get available metrics.
yes
end
String
The time at which to stop retrieving metrics, as specified by an ISO-8601 timestamp string. If you specify end, you must also specify start. Mutually exclusive with period.
yes
granularity
String

An ISO-8601-formatted time period that specifies the interval between metric data points. For example, PT1M specifies 1-minute granularity.

The following subset of ISO-8601-formatted time periods are supported:

  • PT1M

  • PT5M

  • PT1H

  • P1D

yes
<hostID>
String
The host ID of the server running the MongoDB process.
yes
--limit
number
Number of items per page.
no
--output, -o
string

Command output format. Valid values are:

  • json for output in JSON format

  • go-template for custom output using the Go template

  • go-template-file for custom output specified using Go template file

If omitted, the command returns output in the default format.

no
--page
number
Page number
no
period
String
An ISO-8601-formatted time period that specifies the length of time in the past to query. For example, to request the last 36 hours, specify: period=P1DT12H. Mutually exclusive with start and end.
yes
--profile, -P
string
Name of the profile where the project ID and the Programmatic API Keys for the project are saved. If omitted, uses the default profile. To learn more about creating a profile, see Configure the MongoDB CLI.
no
--projectId
string

Unique identifier of the project. If omitted, uses the project ID in the profile or environment variable.

no
start
String
The time at which to start retrieving metrics, as specified by an ISO-8601 timestamp string. If you specify start, you must also specify end. Mutually exclusive with period.
yes
type
String

Specifies which metric to return. If type is not specified, all metrics are returned.

You must specify a metric that is valid for the host. Atlas returns an error if a specified metric is invalid.

The following metric values are valid:

  • DISK_PARTITION_IOPS_READ

  • DISK_PARTITION_IOPS_WRITE

  • DISK_PARTITION_IOPS_TOTAL

Measures throughput of I/O operations for the disk partition used for MongoDB.
  • DISK_PARTITION_UTILIZATION

The percentage of time during which requests are being issued to and serviced by the partition. This includes requests from any process, not just MongoDB processes.
  • DISK_PARTITION_LATENCY_READ

  • DISK_PARTITION_LATENCY_WRITE

Measures latency, per operation type, of the disk partition used by MongoDB.
  • DISK_PARTITION_SPACE_FREE

  • DISK_PARTITION_SPACE_USED

  • DISK_PARTITION_SPACE_PERCENT_FREE

  • DISK_PARTITION_SPACE_PERCENT_USED

Measures the free disk space and used disk space on the disk partition used by MongoDB.
no

The command prints the following fields in the specified format to the terminal if the command succeeds. If the command prints an error, see Troubleshooting for recommended solutions.

The HTTP response returns a JSON document that includes the following objects:

Name
Type
Description
end
string
The end of the period for which to retrieve metrics, specified as an ISO-8601 timestamp.
granularity
string
An ISO-8601-formatted time period that specifies the size of the interval covered by each data point. For example, PT5M specifies a 5-minute granularity.
groupId
string
The ID of the project that owns the MongoDB process.
hostId
string
The hostname of the machine running the MongoDB process.
links
document array
One or more links to sub-resources and/or related resources. The relations between URLs are explained in the Web Linking Specification.
measurements
object array
An array of metrics and their data points.
measurements.name
string
The name of the metric.
measurements.units
string

How the metric is quantified. Possible units are:

  • PERCENT

  • MILLISECONDS

  • BYTES

  • GIGABYTES

  • BYTES_PER_SECOND

  • MEGABYTES_PER_SECOND

  • GIGABYTES_PER_HOUR

  • SCALAR_PER_SECOND

  • SCALAR

partitionName
string
Name of the disk or partition to which the metrics pertain.
processId
string
The hostname and port of the machine running the MongoDB process.
start
string
The start of the period for which to retrieve metrics, specified as an ISO-8601 timestamp.

The following example uses the mongocli ops-manager metrics disks describe command to retrieve available process metrics for the data partition on a host with ID 5abbc52a0bd66b71d71f5698. The granularity is set to one minute, with a period of one minute. The command the default profile where the project ID and the Programmatic API Keys are stored.

mongocli ops-manager metrics disks describe \
5abbc52a0bd66b71d71f5698 data \
--granularity PT1M --period PT1M --output json

The previous command produces the following output.
