Create One Blockstore Configuration

Configures one new blockstore.

Base URL: https://{OPSMANAGER-HOST}:{PORT}/api/public/v1.0/admin/backup

Resource

POST /snapshot/mongoConfigs

Request Path Parameters

This endpoint does not use HTTP request path parameters.

Request Query Parameters

The following query parameters are optional:

Name Type Necessity Description Default
pretty boolean Optional Flag indicating whether the response body should be in a prettyprint format. false
envelope boolean Optional

Flag that indicates whether or not to wrap the response in an envelope.

Some API clients cannot access the HTTP response headers or status code. To remediate this, set envelope=true in the query.

For endpoints that return one result, the response body includes:

Name Description
status HTTP response code
envelope Expected response body
false

Request Body Parameters

Name Type Description
assignmentEnabled boolean Optional. Flag indicating whether this blockstore can be assigned backup jobs.
encryptedCredentials boolean Optional. Flag indicating whether the username and password for this blockstore were encrypted using the credentialstool.
id string The unique name that labels this blockstore.
labels array of strings

Optional. Array of tags to manage which backup jobs Ops Manager can assign to which blockstores.

Setting these tags limits which backup jobs this blockstore can process. If omitted, this blockstore can only process backup jobs for projects that do not use labels to filter their jobs.

loadFactor number

Optional. A positive, non-zero integer that expresses how much backup work this snapshot store should perform compared to another snapshot store. This option is needed only if more than one snapshot store is in use.

maxCapacityGB number Optional. The maximum amount of data in GB this blockstore can store.
uri string A comma-separated list of hosts in the <hostname:port> format that can be used to access this blockstore.
ssl boolean Optional. Flag indicating whether this blockstore only accepts connections encrypted using TLS.
writeConcern string

Optional. The write concern used for this blockstore.

The accepted values for this option are:

  • ACKNOWLEDGED
  • W2
  • JOURNALED
  • MAJORITY
