Hello, i managed to run the server on a let’s say machine A,  
Then i install the client installation part but when i try to connect client to server i get an error like this:

Checking local pmm-agent status…  
pmm-agent is not running. Please re-run `pmm-agent setup` with --config-file flag.

There was no agent setup on instructions, how can i solve this?

Thanks

Hi @ilkerdemirci , welcome to the Percona Forums!

Please try to start the agent first with:

```auto
systemctl start pmm-agent

```

Then re-run the `pmm-admin config` command to connect your instance to the PMM Server

Hello,  
Thanks for the reply, i managed to add my mongodb for monitoring.  
I want to see my queries’ performance metrics, where can i find that option?  
When i hit Query Analytics button it doesn’t show my mongodb queries.

Thanks

Hi, you have to enable the profiler and give pmm user the proper privileges. See [MongoDB - Percona Monitoring and Management](https://www.percona.com/doc/percona-monitoring-and-management/2.x/setting-up/client/mongodb.html) for the detailed steps.
