.SH SYNOPSIS
.sp
\fBmongotop\fP provides a method to track the amount of time a
MongoDB instance spends reading and writing data. \fBmongotop\fP
provides statistics on a per\-collection level. By default,
\fBmongotop\fP returns values every second.
.sp
\fBIMPORTANT:\fP
.INDENT 0.0
.INDENT 3.5
In order to connect to a \fBmongod\fP that enforces
authorization with the \fI\-\-auth\fP option, the
\fI\-\-username\fP and
\fI\-\-password\fP options must be used, and the
user specified must have the \fBserverStatus\fP and
\fBtop\fP privileges.
.sp
The most appropriate built\-in role that has these privileges is
\fBclusterMonitor\fP\&.

.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-host <hostname><:port>, \-h <hostname><:port>
\fIDefault\fP: localhost:27017
.sp
Specifies a resolvable hostname for the \fBmongod\fP to which to
connect. By default, the \fBmongotop\fP attempts to connect to a MongoDB
instance running on the localhost on port number \fB27017\fP\&.
.sp
To connect to a replica set, specify the
\fBreplSetName\fP and a seed list of set members, as in
the following:
.INDENT 7.0
.INDENT 3.5
.sp
.nf
.ft C
<replSetName>/<hostname1><:port>,<hostname2><:port>,<...>
.ft P
.fi
.UNINDENT
.UNINDENT
.sp
You can always connect directly to a single MongoDB instance by
specifying the host and port number directly.
.sp
Changed in version 3.0.0: If you use IPv6 and use the \fB<address>:<port>\fP format, you must
enclose the portion of an address and port combination in
brackets (e.g. \fB[<address>]\fP).
.sp
If connected to a replica set where the \fIprimary\fP is not
reachable, \fBmongotop\fP returns an error message.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-port <port>
\fIDefault\fP: 27017
.sp
Specifies the TCP port on which the MongoDB instance listens for
client connections.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-ipv6
Enables IPv6 support and allows the \fBmongotop\fP to connect to the
MongoDB instance using an IPv6 network. All MongoDB programs and
processes disable IPv6 support by default.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-ssl
New in version 2.6.
.sp
Enables connection to a \fBmongod\fP or \fBmongos\fP that has
SSL support enabled.
.sp
The default distribution of MongoDB does not contain support for SSL.
For more information on MongoDB and SSL, see http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/tutorial/configure\-ssl\&.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-sslCAFile <filename>
New in version 2.6.
.sp
Specifies the \fB\&.pem\fP file that contains the root certificate chain
from the Certificate Authority. Specify the file name of the
\fB\&.pem\fP file using relative or absolute paths.
.sp
The default distribution of MongoDB does not contain support for SSL.
For more information on MongoDB and SSL, see http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/tutorial/configure\-ssl\&.
.sp
\fBWARNING:\fP
.INDENT 7.0
.INDENT 3.5
If the \fBmongo\fP shell or any other tool that connects to
\fBmongos\fP or \fBmongod\fP is run without
\fI\-\-sslCAFile\fP, it will not attempt to validate
server certificates. This results in 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 against which
server certificates should be validated in cases where intrusion is a
possibility.

.TP
.B \-\-sslPEMKeyFile <filename>
New in version 2.6.
.sp
Specifies the \fB\&.pem\fP file that contains both the SSL certificate
and key. Specify the file name of the \fB\&.pem\fP file using relative
or absolute paths.
.sp
This option is required when using the \fI\%\-\-ssl\fP option to connect
to a \fBmongod\fP or \fBmongos\fP that has
\fBCAFile\fP enabled \fIwithout\fP
\fBallowConnectionsWithoutCertificates\fP\&.
.sp
The default distribution of MongoDB does not contain support for SSL.

.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-sslPEMKeyPassword <value>
New in version 2.6.
.sp
Specifies the password to de\-crypt the certificate\-key file (i.e.
\fI\%\-\-sslPEMKeyFile\fP). Use the \fI\%\-\-sslPEMKeyPassword\fP option only if the
certificate\-key file is encrypted. In all cases, the \fBmongotop\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 \fBmongotop\fP will prompt for a passphrase. See
\fIssl\-certificate\-password\fP\&.
.sp
The default distribution of MongoDB does not contain support for SSL.

New in version 2.6.
.sp
Bypasses the validation checks for server certificates and allows
the use of invalid certificates. When using the
\fBallowInvalidCertificates\fP setting, MongoDB logs as a
warning the use of the invalid certificate.
.sp
The default distribution of MongoDB does not contain support for SSL.

.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-sslAllowInvalidHostnames

\fBmongotop\fP to connect to MongoDB instances if the hostname their
certificates do not match the specified hostname.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B \-\-sslFIPSMode
New in version 2.6.
.sp
Directs the \fBmongotop\fP to use the FIPS mode of the installed OpenSSL
library. Your system must have a FIPS compliant OpenSSL library to use
the \fI\%\-\-sslFIPSMode\fP option.

\fBmongotop\fP returns time values specified in milliseconds
(ms.)
.sp
\fBmongotop\fP only reports active namespaces or databases,
depending on the \fI\%\-\-locks\fP option. If you don\(aqt see a database
or collection, it has received no recent activity. You can issue a
simple operation in the \fBmongo\fP shell to generate activity to
affect the output of \fBmongotop\fP\&.

.B mongotop.ns
Contains the database namespace, which combines the database name
and collection.

appear in the \fBmongotop\fP output.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
