Measurement Types

The measurements endpoint returns the available measurement types for use with the Cloud Manager Measurements API resource.

SYSTEM_MEMORY_USED SYSTEM_MEMORY_FREE SYSTEM_MEMORY_AVAILABLE	Physical memory usage, in bytes.
SYSTEM_NETWORK_BYTES_IN SYSTEM_NETWORK_BYTES_OUT	Network throughput in bytes per second.
SWAP_USAGE_USED SWAP_USAGE_FREE	Total amount swap space in use.

QUERY_EXECUTOR_SCANNED	Average rate per second to scan index items during queries and query-plan evaluations found in the value of totalKeysExamined from the explain command.
QUERY_EXECUTOR_SCANNED_OBJECTS	Average rate of documents scanned per second during queries and query-plan evaluations found in the value of totalDocsExamined from the explain command.
QUERY_TARGETING_SCANNED_PER_RETURNED	Ratio of the number of index items scanned to the number of documents returned.
QUERY_TARGETING_SCANNED_OBJECTS_PER_RETURNED	Ratio of the number of documents scanned to the number of documents returned.

Database Measurements

DATABASE_WRITE_LOCK_PERCENTAGE

Duration that the host is write locked.

DATABASE_AVERAGE_OBJECT_SIZE DATABASE_COLLECTION_COUNT DATABASE_DATA_SIZE DATABASE_FILE_SIZE DATABASE_STORAGE_SIZE DATABASE_INDEX_SIZE DATABASE_INDEX_COUNT DATABASE_EXTENT_COUNT DATABASE_OBJECT_COUNT

Amount of disk storage that database uses on-disk storage space found from the MongoDB dbStats command. By default, the Monitoring retrieves database measurements every 20 minutes but adjusts frequency when necessary to reduce the impact on database performance. To disable collecting database statistics in the Cloud Manager, click Settings, then click Group Settings, and then set Collect Database Specific Statistics to No.
