Returns either an updated status of the synchronization process or an error.

GET /api/v1/progress

The progress endpoint returns either an updated status or an error.

The response object contains 2 top-level fields, success and progress.

The success field contains the status of the progress command. Value is true if always true.

If mongosync successfully gets the status of the sync process, all response fields are wrapped in the top-level progress object with the following fields:

Field
Type
Description

state

string

The current state of mongosync. For information on the possible states, see State Descriptions.

canCommit

boolean

If true, indicates that a commit request will succeed. This also means that the initial sync has completed and is applying change events.

canWrite

boolean

If true, indicates that writes are permitted on the destination cluster. Do not write to the destination cluster while canWrite is false.

Index validation continues until the commit is complete.

info

string

Provides extra information on the synchronization progress. Possible info values include:

  • "collection copy"

  • "change event application"

  • "waiting for commit to complete"

  • "commit completed"

lagTimeSeconds

integer

Time difference in seconds between the latest event timestamp that mongosync applied to the destination cluster and the latest timestamp on the source cluster for this instance of mongosync.

mongosync performs periodic no-op writes on the source cluster, which may prevent the value of the lagTimeSeconds field from reaching zero until mongosync commits the migration.

Due to constant no-ops on the source cluster, the time difference is often a few seconds above zero, even if there are no real writes on the source cluster. The time difference becomes zero when mongosync commits the migration.

totalEventsApplied

integer

The approximate number of change events this instance of mongosync has applied to the destination cluster.

This value may not be an accurate representation of the total number of events because it is not persisted and it omits certain events from the count.

collectionCopy

object

Estimates the total amount of data being copied from collections and the amount that has already been copied to the destination cluster

collectionCopy .estimatedTotalBytes

integer

Estimated total number of bytes to be copied globally by all mongosync instances during the initial copying of collections.

mongosync approximates the estimated total number of bytes prior to migration and does not update this value during the synchronization process. This value does not reflect changes made to the source cluster during sync and is not an accurate indicator of migration progress.

collectionCopy .estimatedCopiedBytes

integer

Estimated number of bytes which have been copied to the destination cluster by this mongosync instance during the initial copying of collections.

To calculate the total estimated progress as a percentage, add the value of the estimatedCopiedBytes field for each mongosync instance and divide the result by the value of the estimatedTotalBytes field . Then, multiply the result by 100.

The value of estimatedCopiedBytes may be larger than the value of the estimatedTotalBytes due to retried operations. A comparison of estimatedTotalBytes and estimatedCopiedBytes is not an accurate indicator of migration progress.

directionMapping

object

Describes the mapping direction for the synchronization, namely the source and destination clusters.

directionMapping .Source

string

Source cluster. Returned in the form <cluster name>: <host>:<port>.

directionMapping .Destination

string

Destination cluster. Returned in the form <cluster name>: <host>:<port>.

mongosyncID

string

Identifier string for the mongosync instance.

New in version 1.3.

coordinatorID

string

Identifier string for the coordinator instance.

  • When mongosync is coordinated by another instance, this field shows the identifier string for the coordinator instance.

  • When mongosync is a coordinator or runs alone, this field returns the same value as its mongosyncID field.

  • When mongosync starts up, this field returns null until mongosync identifies the coordinator.

New in version 1.3.

verification

document

Provides information on the phase and progress of verification checks performed by the embedded verifier.

New in version 1.9.

verification.source

document

Provides information on the phase and progress of verification checks running on the source cluster.

New in version 1.9.

verification.source. estimatedDocumentCount

integer

Estimated number of documents on the source cluster.

New in version 1.9.

verification.source. hashedDocumentCount

integer

Number of documents hashed by the verifier on the source cluster.

New in version 1.9.

verification.source. lagTimeSeconds

integer

Time in seconds after the last verification check was performed on the source cluster.

New in version 1.9.

verification.source. phase

string

Current phase of the verification process on the source cluster.

New in version 1.9.

verification.source. scannedCollectionCount

integer

Number of collections scanned by the embedded verifier on the source cluster.

New in version 1.9.

verification.source. totalCollectionCount

integer

Number of collections on the source cluster to include in verification checks.

verification.destination

document

Provides information on the phase and progress of verification checks running on the destination cluster.

New in version 1.9.

verification.destination. estimatedDocumentCount

integer

Estimated number of documents on the destination cluster.

New in version 1.9.

verification.destination. hashedDocumentCount

integer

Number of documents hashed by the verifier on the destination cluster.

New in version 1.9.

verification.destination. lagTimeSeconds

integer

Time in seconds since the last verification check performed on the destination cluster.

New in version 1.9.

verification.destination. phase

string

Current phase of the verification process on the destination cluster.

New in version 1.9.

verification.destination. scannedCollectionCount

integer

Number of collections scanned by the embedded verifier on the destination cluster.

New in version 1.9.

verification.destination. totalCollectionCount

integer

Number of collections on the destination cluster to include in verification checks.

New in version 1.9.

If mongosync encounters an error, the progress endpoint returns the following fields:

Field
Type
Description

success

boolean

Status of the progress command. Value is true if the command succeeds and false if the command fails.

error

string

Type of error.

errorDescription

string

Detailed description of the error.

  • When mongosync is in the IDLE state, all output fields except state and canCommit are null.

  • When mongosync is in the PAUSED state, the lagTimeSeconds field is null.

  • The endpoint does not auto-refresh. To get updated status, call the progress endpoint again.

  • Calls to /progress before mongosync reaches the collection copy phase return 0 for estimatedCopiedBytes and 1 for estimatedTotalBytes.

  • estimatedTotalBytes may change throughout the collection copy phase if documents are inserted or deleted on the source cluster.

  • estimatedCopiedBytes is never greater than estimatedTotalBytes. Progress reaches 100% at the end of the collection copy phase (estimatedCopiedBytes = estimatedTotalBytes).

  • When performing a live upgrade from an earlier version to 1.8.0 or higher, the collection copy data starts over from [0 bytes copied / 1 bytes total]. After a live upgrade, /progress only reports the progress of data copied after the upgrade completed.

    Note

    Starting in mongosync 1.7.3, mongosync can take at least two minutes to respond when you resume or restart a sync operation. During this time, any calls to the progress endpoint might fail. If a progress call fails, it is safe to retry.

mongosync does not protect the progress endpoint. However, by default the API binds to localhost only and does not accept calls from other sources. Additionally, the progress call does not expose connection credentials or user data.

The following example returns the status of the synchronization process.

curl localhost:27182/api/v1/progress -XGET
{
"progress":
{
"state":"RUNNING",
"canCommit":true,
"canWrite":false,
"info":"change event application",

"estimatedCopiedBytes":694
},
"directionMapping":

"Source":"cluster0: localhost:27017",
"Destination":"cluster1: localhost:27018"
},
"verification":
