Question

Mongo Cosmos:

From "ServerSatus" Command we can be able to find the overall details about mongo service. Details are Connections, Storage engine, Cache, Transactions, Index Stats, locks, network, sessions.

In Azure Cosmos for mongo, From Docs "ServerSatus" Command is not supported.

FYR, https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cosmos-db/mongodb/feature-support-42

From the link we can confirm, limited diagnostic command only supported.

Is this case, how can we collect the highlighted information from Cosmos service,

Please help me to resolve this metrics details are available and is able to collect.

If not able collect this information means, update what are possible performance metrics we can be able to collect from cosmos and the way to connect the service.

Hi Krishnan N •,

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum.

As I understand, you want to know the supportability and workaround available for "serverstatus" diagnostic command in Azure Cosmos MongoDB.

Since this command is yet not supported as per the standard document, we recommend you to raise feedback over Azure Cosmos DB Feedback channel so that team can work on the feature depending on the importance and up-votes.

As part of getting details related to performance metrics, you can refer to:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cosmos-db/mongodb/find-request-unit-charge?source=recommendations&tabs=mongo-shell

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cosmos-db/use-metrics

Refer to the document for Azure Cosmos MongoDB:

Apart from Azure Monitor, you can use third party monitoring solutions to monitor your Azure Cosmos DB instances.

Let us know if this helps.

Thanks.
