Hi,

Thanks for the quick reply.
can you tell me where can i see running queries? we want to see latency vs query graph for mongo especially. basically we want to check query performance.

Thank you in advance.

Ivan_Groenewold · March 21, 2025, 12:54pm

For that look into the Query Analytics section

Amol_Nagotkar_Helo.a · March 23, 2025, 11:01am

Thanks for the reply.

for mongodb, select options are disabled. why so ?
i have data in my system.profile collection.

Thank you in advance.

try restarting pmm-agent if you enabled profiler after installing pmm. Other than that try selecting different time frame to see if data appears

Amol_Nagotkar_Helo.a · March 24, 2025, 11:02am

Hi,
Thanks for the reply.

i am able to get this. But don’t know why it is not showing insert, update and select mongodb queries. it shows only AGGREGATE queries.

Thank you in advance.

Ivan_Groenewold · March 24, 2025, 1:41pm

that will depend on your profiler settings and the types of queries it is capturing

Amol_Nagotkar_Helo.a · March 25, 2025, 1:53pm

Hi,
for mongo it is showing queries like INSERT table_name, UPDATE table_name. How to get the complete queries ?

Thank you.

Ivan_Groenewold · March 26, 2025, 10:55am

Hi, clicking on each individual query shape you can see the complete query in the Examples tab. In the upcoming PMM 3.1 we are changing this to be more user friendly

Hi,

I didn’t have collections showing on my charts either,
I added the --enable-all-collectors flag to pmm-admin add mongodb

And it started to show more data
