Hi, I setup pmm- monitoring in my Environment under Mysql and MongoDB databases. After setup the client like pmm client in servers I seen it is pointing to local host like 127.0.0.1, even node\_exporter and MongoDB exporters also pointing to local host IP, I want change the local host to server IP or bind IP. Can you please help me to change. netstat -tunlp Active Internet connections (only servers) Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State PID/Program name tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:42000 0.0.0.0:\* LISTEN 2267/mongodb\_export tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:42001 0.0.0.0:\* LISTEN 2308/node\_exporter tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:42002 0.0.0.0:\* LISTEN 2434/vmagent tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:40001 0.0.0.0:\* LISTEN 21557/pmm-agent tcp6 0 0 :::7777 :::\* LISTEN 21557/pmm-agent Even while configuring alert not getting the metrics Value: [var=‘A’ labels={agent\_id=/agent\_id/b#############, agent\_type=pmm-agent, disabled=0, instance=pmm-server, job=pmm-managed, node\_id=/node\_id/#########, node\_name=########, version=2.42.0} value=1] Please help me on this. Thank you. ---

Hi @ravi5358, you can use `pmm-admin remove` to remove the service, then re-add it with the correct IP. You will see both show up in PMM for a week or two until the “127.0.0.1” data is slowly purged. ---

Hi @matthewb, Thanks for your message. Can you share me the full command like below pmm-admin add mongodb --host IP of the server --username=### --password=##### --enable-all-collectors --environment=## --query-source=“profiler” --log-level=“warn” --debug --service-name=hostname-mongodb Thank you Ravi ---

Hi @matthewb, How we can remove the PMM node\_exporter, even I added DB server using pmm-admin add MongoDB --host server\_ip. But it is not showing IP in below command netstat -tunlp Active Internet connections (only servers) Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State PID/Program name tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:42000 0.0.0.0:\* LISTEN 22231/vmagent tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:42001 0.0.0.0:\* LISTEN 22237/node\_exporter tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:42002 0.0.0.0:\* LISTEN 22249/mongodb\_exporter ---

Those are local listeners for scraping the data. Those are not your client connections to mongo.
