Field

Description

cluster_id

string

Required field. ID of the MongoDB cluster to add a shard to.
To get the cluster ID, use a ClusterService.List request.

shard_name

string

Required field. Name of the MongoDB shard to create.

host_specs[]

HostSpec

Configurations for mongod hosts to be created with the shard.

HostSpecHostSpec

Field

Description

zone_id

string

ID of the availability zone where the host resides.
To get a list of available zones, use the yandex.cloud.compute.v1.ZoneService.List request.

subnet_id

string

ID of the subnet that the host should belong to. This subnet should be a part
of the network that the cluster belongs to.
The network ID is set in the Cluster.network_id field.

assign_public_ip

bool

Whether the host should get a public IP address on creation.

After a host has been created, this setting cannot be changed. To remove an assigned public IP, or to assign
a public IP to a host without one, recreate the host with assign_public_ip set as needed.

Possible values:

  • false - don't assign a public IP to the host.
  • true - the host should have a public IP address.

type

enum Type

Type of the host to be deployed.

  • TYPE_UNSPECIFIED: Type of the host is unspecified. Default value.
  • MONGOD: A mongod host.
  • MONGOS: A mongos host.
  • MONGOCFG: A mongocfg host.
  • MONGOINFRA: A mongoinfra (mongos+mongocfg) host.

shard_name

string

Name of the shard that the host belongs to.

hidden

google.protobuf.BoolValue

Is host hidden in replSet

secondary_delay_secs

google.protobuf.Int64Value

The number of seconds "behind" the primary that this replica set member should "lag"

priority

google.protobuf.DoubleValue

Priority of host for the election in replSet

tags

object (map<string, string>)

Host tags
