View Active Agents
To view your active Monitoring Agents:
In MongoDB Cloud Manager, go to the Deployment page for your project.
If it is not already displayed, select the organization that contains your desired project from the Organizations menu in the navigation bar.
If it's not already displayed, select your desired project from the Projects menu in the navigation bar.
If the Deployment page is not already displayed, click Deployment in the sidebar.
The Deployment page displays.
Go to the Agents page.
Click the Agents tab for your deployment.
The Agents page displays.
Active agents are those that have pinged Cloud Manager in the last 5 minutes.
Remove from Cloud Manager
To remove a Monitoring Agent from Cloud Manager, stop the agent and then wait 5 minutes.
When an agent fails to ping Cloud Manager for 5 minutes, Cloud Manager views the agent as inactive and distributes the agent's assignments to other agents (if available).
Note
The All Agents page displays an inactive agent for 24 hours before Cloud Manager removes it from the page.
Delete from the Server
To delete the Monitoring Agent from a Linux or OSX server, stop the
agent and then remove the
mongodb-mms-monitoring-agent file from the /usr/bin directory. If you
installed the agent using a tar.gz file, the agent will be in the
directory you chose during installation.
To delete the Monitoring Agent from a Windows server, stop the agent and then use the Windows program uninstaller
to remove the MongoDB Monitoring Agent program.
