To create a role with just the privilege to run \fI\%mongostat\fP, see create\-role\-for\-mongostat\&. .SH BEHAVIOR .SS FIPS .sp Starting in version 4.2, MongoDB removes the \fB\-\-sslFIPSMode\fP option for mongostat\&. mongostat will use FIPS compliant connections to \fBmongod\fP/\fBmongos\fP if the \fBmongod\fP/\fBmongos\fP instances are configured to use FIPS mode\&. .SH OPTIONS .INDENT 0.0 .TP .B mongostat .UNINDENT .INDENT 0.0 .TP .B \-\-help Returns information on the options and use of \fBmongostat\fP\&. .UNINDENT .INDENT 0.0 .TP .B \-\-verbose, \-v Increases the amount of internal reporting returned on standard output or in log files.

This creates a vulnerability to expired \fBmongod\fP and \fBmongos\fP certificates as well as to foreign processes posing as valid \fBmongod\fP or \fBmongos\fP instances. Ensure that you \fIalways\fP specify the CA file to validate the server certificates in cases where intrusion is a possibility. .UNINDENT .UNINDENT .sp For more information about TLS/SSL and MongoDB, see /tutorial/configure\-ssl and /tutorial/configure\-ssl\-clients . .UNINDENT .INDENT 0.0 .TP .B \-\-sslPEMKeyFile New in version 2.6. .sp Specifies the \fB\&.pem\fP file that contains both the TLS/SSL certificate and key.

Use the \fI\%\-\-sslPEMKeyPassword\fP option only if the certificate\-key file is encrypted. In all cases, the \fBmongostat\fP will redact the password from all logging and reporting output. .sp If the private key in the PEM file is encrypted and you do not specify the \fI\%\-\-sslPEMKeyPassword\fP option, the \fBmongostat\fP will prompt for a passphrase. See ssl\-certificate\-password\&. .sp For more information about TLS/SSL and MongoDB, see /tutorial/configure\-ssl and /tutorial/configure\-ssl\-clients . .UNINDENT .INDENT 0.0 .TP .B \-\-sslCRLFile New in version 2.6. .sp Specifies the \fB\&.pem\fP file that contains the Certificate Revocation List.

When using the \fBallowInvalidCertificates\fP setting, MongoDB logs as a warning the use of the invalid certificate. .sp Starting in MongoDB 4.0, if you specify \fB\-\-sslAllowInvalidCertificates\fP or \fBnet.ssl.allowInvalidCertificates: true\fP (or in MongoDB 4.2, the alias \fB\-\-tlsAllowInvalidateCertificates\fP or \fBnet.tls.allowInvalidCertificates: true\fP) when using x.509 authentication, an invalid certificate is only sufficient to establish a TLS/SSL connection but is \fIinsufficient\fP for authentication. .sp # We created a separate blurb for tls in the ssl\-clients page. .sp \fBWARNING:\fP .INDENT 7.0 .INDENT 3.5 Although available, avoid using the \fB\-\-sslAllowInvalidCertificates\fP option if possible. If the use of \fB\-\-sslAllowInvalidCertificates\fP is necessary, only use the option on systems where intrusion is not possible. .sp If the \fBmongo\fP shell (and other mongodb\-tools\-support\-ssl) runs with the \fB\-\-sslAllowInvalidCertificates\fP option, the \fBmongo\fP shell (and other mongodb\-tools\-support\-ssl) will not attempt to validate the server certificates. This creates a vulnerability to expired \fBmongod\fP and \fBmongos\fP certificates as well as to foreign processes posing as valid \fBmongod\fP or \fBmongos\fP instances. If you only need to disable the validation of the hostname in the TLS/SSL certificates, see \fB\-\-sslAllowInvalidHostnames\fP\&. .UNINDENT .UNINDENT .sp For more information about TLS/SSL and MongoDB, see /tutorial/configure\-ssl and /tutorial/configure\-ssl\-clients . .UNINDENT .INDENT 0.0 .TP .B \-\-sslAllowInvalidHostnames New in version 3.0. .sp Disables the validation of the hostnames in TLS/SSL certificates. Allows \fBmongostat\fP to connect to MongoDB instances even if the hostname in their certificates do not match the specified hostname. .sp For more information about TLS/SSL and MongoDB, see /tutorial/configure\-ssl and /tutorial/configure\-ssl\-clients . .UNINDENT .INDENT 0.0 .TP .B \-\-username , \-u Specifies a username with which to authenticate to a MongoDB database that uses authentication.
