Overview¶

You associate specific users, servers, and agents to a given group. When you create a new group, you are automatically added as a user to the new group.

If you have multiple MongoDB systems in distinct environments and cannot monitor all systems with a single agent, you will need to add a new group. Having a second group makes it possible to run two agents.

You may also use a second group and agent to monitor a different set of MongoDB instances in the same environment if you want to segregate the hosts within the MMS console. A user can only view data from the hosts monitored in a single group at once.

After adding a second group, the MMS interface will have a drop down list that will allow you to change groups. Selecting a new group will refresh the current page with the data available from the servers in this group.

Procedures¶

Add Group¶

From the MMS Console:

1

Select the Users tab.¶

2

Click the Add New Group button.¶

3

In the Group Name box, type a name for the new group.¶

For security and auditing reasons, you cannot use a name used earlier.

4

Click Add New Group to add the group.¶

Once created, the group’s name is immutable.

Once you create a new group, the Setup screen will display for the new group. The left corner of the top banner should display the name of the new group.

Remove Group¶

Please contact your MMS administrator to remove a company or group from your MMS account.
