Hi Team,
We are on Percona server for MongoDB 4.4 version.
PMM Client version - pmm2
PMM server is Installed using Docker Image.
When we are trying to configure PMM for our MongoDB replica sets.
Even though, when we add –replication-set tag, It is not being detected in the MongoDB Replica Set summary dashboard.
I have used the below command to add the nodes to PMM.
(Ran this command on all the 3 nodes present in the replica set).
pmm-admin add mongodb --username=pmm --password=password --environment=DEV --replication-set=replication_name --authentication-mechanism=SCRAM-SHA-1
Can you please review and help me out.
Thank you
Kiran
Hello, you don’t need to provide the --replication-set flag as PMM will automatically detect the members of a replica set based on rs.status() output. Try adding as follows:
pmm-admin add mongodb --username=pmm --password=password --environment=DEV
Also make sure you select the Last 5 min in the dashboard, and give it 1-2 min time to populate to check for the new member.
Hello Ivan,
Thank you for your response.
I tried adding the service without --replication-set flag but, unable to see the replicaset on the dashboard.
Below is the screenshot of pmm-admin list post service addition.
Do we need to enable any setting/change configuration for the replicaset to be displayed on the dashboard?
Please help me out.
Thank you,
Kiran
Hi @Ivan_Groenewold
We were able to figure out the Issue here.
pmm-server version we are on is 2.20.0
pmm2-client version is 2.29.1
We tried upgrading the docker image of the pmm-server to 2.28.0 and It resolved the Issue. (Are there any version specifications[server and the client] that you recommend while configuring the PMM?
Thank you for your time and help on this.
Regards,
Kiran
Hello, glad to hear you sorted it out. As per the manual always use a PMM server version higher or equal to the client. Ideally they should be the same version except during an upgrade.
