ApsaraDB for MongoDB:Add a mongos node

Last Updated:Dec 28, 2023

This topic describes how to add a mongos node to an ApsaraDB for MongoDB sharded cluster instance.

Billing

For more information, see Configuration change fees.

Precautions

  • If the minor version of a sharded cluster instance expires or is not included in the maintenance list, ApsaraDB for MongoDB automatically updates the minor version of the instance to the latest version during a configuration change. This ensures that the sharded cluster instance can provide higher performance and higher stability.

  • When mongos nodes are added, no transient connections occur and your business continues to run as expected.

  • Typically, mongos nodes are added within 5 minutes. The time it takes to add mongos nodes is not dependent on the number of mongos nodes being added.

Procedure

  1. Log on to the ApsaraDB for MongoDB console.

  2. In the left-side navigation pane, click Sharded Cluster Instances.

  3. In the upper-left corner of the page, select the resource group and region to which the instance belongs.

  4. Click the ID of an instance, or click More icon in the Actions column corresponding to the instance and select Manage.

  5. In the Mongos List section, click Add Mongos in the upper-right corner of the section.
