Checking status of Percona Backup for MongoDB

As of version 1.4.0, you can check the status of Percona Backup for MongoDB running in your MongoDB environment using the pbm status command.

$ pbm status

The output provides the information about:

  • Your MongoDB deployment and pbm-agents running in it: to what mongod node each agent is connected, the Percona Backup for MongoDB version it runs and the agent’s state

  • The currently running backups / restores, if any

  • Backups stored in the remote backup storage: backup name, completion time, size and status (complete, canceled, failed)

  • Point-in-Time Recovery status (enabled or disabled).

  • Valid time ranges for point-in-time recovery and the data size

This simplifies troubleshooting since the whole information is provided in one place.
