Add the MongoDB Cluster
On the Add a big data app page, from the Application type list, select MongoDB.
If no MongoDB master node is found, a message appears, with a link that you can use to download and install the Commvault software on the master node so that you can select it from the Master node list.
In Cluster name, enter a name for the cluster.
From the Master node list, select the master node.
In the Binary path box, enter the path to the folder that contains the mongod or mongos executable file.
In the OS user name, enter the user account that you want the Commvault software to use to access the master node.
In Port number, enter the mongod or mongos port number.
To back up MongoDB clusters in both Windows and Linux environments, under Database authentication, you can enter the credentials of an account to authenticate with.
Note: Log backups with authentication is not supported on Windows.
The account must have one of the following on the admin database:
The root role. This is a superuser role.
The backup, restore, clusterMonitor, and hostManager roles. If you do not want to assign a superuser role to the database user, use these roles.
From Plan, select the server backup plan to use for the cluster.
Click Save.
