Can you use a Docker hosted PMM Server container and a separate Percona Server for Mongo DB container for backups?

MongoDB Percona Backup for MongoDB
1

I have an Ubuntu server with a Percona Server for MongoDB container running and then a separate PMM server container running.

I have been able to see the backup option, set a storage location and add the Percona for MongoDB container to a cluster for the PMM backups; however, when I try to start a physical backup, the error says: “software “Mongodb” is not installed; incompatible service.

I can see the Mongo logs/dashboard just fine, but this backup feature doesn’t work.

Are Dockerized deployments of Percona Server for MongoDB eligible to be backed up by PMM in a separate container?

High level deployment:

Port 27017 is exposing the Percona Server for MongoDB container

Port 8443 is exposing the PMM server container

All containers are on the same network.

Thanks!

Hi, unfortunately Dockerized deployments of MongoDB isn’t supported by PMM Backups yet.
