Percona Monitoring and Management (PMM) 1.6.0 Is Now Available

Percona announces the release of Percona Monitoring and Management I[/I] 1.6.0. In this release, Percona Monitoring and Management Grafana metrics are available in the Advanced Data Exploration dashboard. We’ve improved the integration with MyRocks, and its data is now collected from SHOW GLOBAL STATUS.

The MongoDB Exporter now features two new metrics: mongodb_up to inform if the MongoDB Server is running and mongodb_scrape_errors_total reporting the total number of errors when scaping MongoDB.

In this release, we’ve greatly improved the performance of the mongodb:metrics monitoring service.

Percona Monitoring and Management (PMM) 1.6.0 also includes version 4.6.3 of Grafana which includes fixes to bugs in the alert list and the alerting rules. More information is available in the Grafana’s change log. New Features
