How to check if Mongodb enterprise is used

Question

How to check if mongodb enterprise version is used? Is there a flag or property that I can request. mongod --version returns only the version.

Answer 1

From the mongo support team if mongod -h | grep 'snmp-subagent' execution mongod -h | grep 'snmp-subagent' mongod -h | grep 'snmp-subagent' does not produce any results, most likely this is a community version (not an enterprise).

I recently asked this question on MongoDB JIRA. Here's the answer:

There are at least three ways to find out if you are using Enterprise, I will leave this to you to determine the easiest for your case:

1) In recent versions of Ops Manager / Cloud Manager, the token is placed after the version number as "-ent". For example, 2.6.11 will display as "2.6.11-ent."

2) In the Mongo shell, you can check the connected server by running db.serverBuildInfo (). gitVersion. Example output on 2.6.9:

 >db.serverBuildInfo().gitVersion df313bc75aa94d192330cb92756fc486ea604e64 modules: enterprise 

Please note that "modules: enterprise" is displayed only for Enterprise versions.

3) If you have only a binary file, you can check the version with the -version flag on the command line. For instance:

 mongod --version db version v2.6.9 git version: df313bc75aa94d192330cb92756fc486ea604e64 modules: enterprise OpenSSL version: OpenSSL 1.0.1m-fips 19 Mar 2015 

Please note that "modules: enterprise" is displayed only for Enterprise versions.

In MongoDB version 3.6, you can get information if corporate modules were built or not through the mongo shell, and the output

 db.serverBuildInfo().modules 

In Enterprise, it will indicate:

 [ "enterprise" ] 

An empty array must be shown in the Community.

MongoDB Enterprise Edition comes with advanced security features such as Kerberos or LDAP, as an alternative to password or certificate authentication, and they provide a support and training contract.

If you find any of these in your MongoDB, you are using Enterprise Edition.

If you use db.version() , it will simply return the version of the mongod or mongos instance.
