PMM2 not able to connect MongoDB Atlas Servers

Hi Team,

Is there a way where we can add MongoDB cloud servers which are hosted in Atlas in PMM2 monitoring,
I don’t see a proper document for it. Could you please share insights on the same?

Thank you.

Hi, at the moment it is not possible but please vote here [PMM-10357] Add flag --direct-connection to pmm-admin - Percona JIRA so that the issue is prioritized.

Is this resolved? We are using mongodb atlas replica set cluster and mongo-exporter to get metrics. I am not sure how to disable direct connection. Any help is appreciated

@Ivan_Groenewold - do we have the option in PMM 3 to connect to mongo atlas directly.

If we still have to use any workaround, can u share the steps.

Hi, at this time the ticket is still pending. Feel free to add your vote so we prioritize it

Meanwhile will the external exporter and linking to PMM work ?

Cannot find actual steps to perform the workaround ?

Yes that approach should work but I can’t give you the exact steps since we don’t really support that scenario. You will need to experiment.

Can u share the link to integrate external exporters

Hi, you can try this page in the documentation, maybe it will help
