Update from Deployments with Managed and Unmanaged Agents

Log in to the Cloud Manager.

From the notification banner, click Update All Agents.

The Update to MongoDB Agent page opens to start the update process. The Introducing the MongoDB Agent step displays. When you have finished reading this step, click Next.

Update automated hosts to MongoDB Agent.

If your project has hosts that use Automation, you can update the Agents on those hosts to the MongoDB Agent.

1. Click Update All.

2. Wait until all hosts show Updated.

3. Click Next.

All authentication SCRAM, LDAP, and Kerberos credentials from legacy Agents are retained after the update. All .pem key files are retained as well.

The legacy Automation Agent credentials become the MongoDB Agent credentials used for Automation. These credentials should not need modification. However, if you need to modify them:

1. In MongoDB Cloud Manager, go to the Deployment page for your project.

   1. If it is not already displayed, select the organization that contains your desired project from the Organizations menu in the navigation bar.

   2. If it's not already displayed, select your desired project from the Projects menu in the navigation bar.

   3. If the Deployment page is not already displayed, click Deployment in the sidebar.

      The Deployment page displays.

2. Go to the Security page.

   1. Click the Security tab for your deployment.

3. Edit the settings.

   1. Click Settings.

   2. Click Edit Settings.

Finish the installation of the MongoDB Agent.

At the Final Steps modal, the legacy Backup and Monitoring Agents are put into standby mode. Click Finish.
