Viewing MongoDB cluster logs

If you do not have the Yandex Cloud CLI yet, install and initialize it.

The folder specified when creating the CLI profile is used by default. To change the default folder, use the yc config set folder-id <folder_ID> command. You can specify a different folder using the --folder-name or --folder-id parameter.

1. View the description of the CLI command to view cluster logs:

   yc managed-mongodb cluster list-logs --help
   

2. Run the following command to get cluster logs (our example does not contain a complete list of available parameters):

   yc managed-mongodb cluster list-logs <cluster_name_or_ID> \
      --limit <entry_number_limit> \
      --service-type <service_type> \
      --columns <list_of_data_columns> \
      --filter <entry_filtration_settings> \
      --since <time_range_left_boundary> \
      --until <time_range_right_boundary>
   

   Where:

   • --limit: limits on the number of entries to output.

   • --service-type: Type of the service for which you want to output entries (mongod, mongos, mongocfg, or audit).

   • --columns: List of data columns:

     • component: Type of component to log. e.g., CONTROL.
     • context: Name of the executable module, e.g., signalProcessingThread.
     • hostname: Host name.
     • message: Message output by the component.
     • severity: Logging level, e.g., I or W (Info and Warning, respectively).

     Note

     The list of data columns depends on the selected --service-type.

   • --filter: record filter settings, for example, message.hostname='node1.mdb.yandexcloud.net'.

   • --since: Left boundary of a time range in RFC-3339, HH:MM:SS format or a time interval relative to the current time. Examples: 2006-01-02T15:04:05Z, 15:04:05, 2h, 3h30m ago.

   • --until: right boundary of a time range, the format is similar to that of --since.

You can request the cluster name and ID with the list of clusters in the folder.

1. Get an IAM token for API authentication and put it into the environment variable:

   export IAM_TOKEN="<IAM_token>"
   

2. Use the Cluster.ListLogs method and send the following request, e.g., via cURL:

   curl \
       --request GET \
       --header "Authorization: Bearer $IAM_TOKEN" \
       --url 'https://mdb.api.cloud.yandex.net/managed-mongodb/v1/clusters/<cluster_ID>:logs' \
       --url-query serviceType=<service_type> \
       --url-query columnFilter=<column_list> \
       --url-query fromTime=<time_range_left_boundary> \
       --url-query toTime=<time_range_right_boundary>
   

   Where:

   • serviceType: Type of the service to get logs for:

     • MONGOD: MongoDB operations log.
     • AUDIT: Audit log.

   • columnFilter: List of data columns:

     • hostname: Host name.
     • component: Type of component to log, Example: HTTP-Session.
     • message: Message output by the component.
     • query_id: Request ID.
     • severity: Logging level, e.g., Debug.
     • thread: ID of the thread involved in query handling.

     You can specify only one column in the columnFilter parameter. If you want to filter logs by more than one column, provide a list of the columns in several parameters.

     • fromTime: Left boundary of a time range in RFC-3339 format, Example: 2006-01-02T15:04:05Z.
     • toTime: Right boundary of a time range, the format is the same as for fromTime.

   You can request the cluster ID with the list of clusters in the folder.

3. View the server response to make sure the request was successful.

1. Get an IAM token for API authentication and put it into the environment variable:

   export IAM_TOKEN="<IAM_token>"
   

2. Clone the cloudapi repository:

   cd ~/ && git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/yandex-cloud/cloudapi
   

   Below, we assume the repository contents are stored in the ~/cloudapi/ directory.

3. Use the ClusterService.ListLogs call and send the following request, e.g., via gRPCurl:

   grpcurl \
     -format json \
     -import-path ~/cloudapi/ \
     -import-path ~/cloudapi/third_party/googleapis/ \
     -proto ~/cloudapi/yandex/cloud/mdb/mongodb/v1/cluster_service.proto \
     -rpc-header "Authorization: Bearer $IAM_TOKEN" \
     -d '{
           "cluster_id": "<cluster_ID>",
           "service_type": "<service_type>",
           "column_filter": [
             "<column_1>", "<column_2>", ..., "<column_N>"
           ],
           "from_time": "<time_range_left_boundary>",
           "to_time": "<time_range_right_boundary>"
         }' \
     mdb.api.cloud.yandex.net:443 \
     yandex.cloud.mdb.mongodb.v1.ClusterService.ListLogs
   

   Where:

   • service_type: Type of the service to get logs for:

     • MONGOD: MongoDB operations log.
     • AUDIT: Audit log.

     • to_time: Right boundary of a time range, the format is the same as for from_time.

   You can request the cluster ID with the list of clusters in the folder.

       --request GET \
       --header "Authorization: Bearer $IAM_TOKEN" \
       --url 'https://mdb.api.cloud.yandex.net/managed-mongodb/v1/clusters/<cluster_ID>:stream_logs' \

     A filter can contain quotation marks and other characters. Escape them if you need to.
