I want the dashboard templates for PBM (Percona Backup for MongoDB)

[sys0613]

The version 0.42.0 of mongodb_exporter supports the --collector.pbm parameter to collect metrics related to Percona Backup for MongoDB. Are there any dashboard templates available for these metrics?

Hi, no, as far as I know. we used these metrics for alerts on PMM side.

@BupycHuk Thank you, I will create the Grafana dashboard myself and hope that it can be adopted later. Could you please tell me which metrics PMM uses for alerts, how the alerts are defined, and what the threshold values are? Thank you..

There are alerts for monitoring PBM agent statuses, when PBM backups are taking too long, and when backup sizes are too large based on the following metrics:

• mongodb_pbm_agent_status
• mongodb_pbm_backup_duration_seconds
• mongodb_pbm_backup_size_bytes

The thresholds are configurable by the users since they know best about their environments.
