Mongodb monitoring plugins for

Munin Plugins for MongoDB

Plugins

• mongo_collcount : Count of documents in multible collections per db
• mongo_collsize : Index, storage and data size per collection
• mongo_indexsize : Index sizes of all collections in a db

Requirements

• pymongo 2.0+
• MongoDB 1.4+

Installation

Follow the following steps to install these plugins on your munin-node

• Copy mongo_collcount and mongo_indexsize into /etc/munin/plugins

• Copy the wildcard plugin mongo_collsize to /etc/munin/plugins/mongo_collsize_<your collection>, where <your collection> means the name of the collection you want to monitor, this is case sensetive!

• Edit /etc/munin/plugin-conf.d/plugins, and add the following:

    [mongo_*]
    user nobody
    env.HOST <mongodbs ip>
    env.PORT 27017
    env.DB <the database you want to monitor>
  

• At last restart munin-node:

    sudo /etc/init.d/munin-node restart
  

mongomon's Issues

There are bugs in README.md

Copy mongo_collcount and mongo_indexsize into /etc/mongo/plugins
Copy the wildcard plugin mongo_collsize to /etc/mongo/plugins/mongo_collsize_,
I think there should be /etc/munin/plugins not /etc/mongo/plugins

DB authentication

Hey,

It appears that the plugins lack the ability to authenticate to the MongoDB. This would be a very welcome feature in security-aware environments, and it would consequently also be nice if the documentation states which roles each plugin requires to work.
