Graylog Dashboard Metadata in MongoDb

All,

Graylog’s dashboards metadata in MongoDb is not showing on my instance. The Graylog server has been upgraded since version 1.3 never had any real issues. Today I was in the process of querying some metadata in mongo and came across empties Documents.

First, here is a screen shot of my dashboards on the Web UI (some not all).

Next, let’s log into Mongo shell.

[root@graylog mongo]#  mongo --port 27017 -u username -p 'some_password'
MongoDB shell version v4.4.15
connecting to: mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017/?compressors=disabled&gssapiServiceName=mongodb
Implicit session: session { "id" : UUID("57bec8d4-6685-4f80-b775-200341ee6d41") }
MongoDB server version: 4.4.15
---
The server generated these startup warnings when booting:
        2022-07-29T20:24:14.175-05:00: You are running on a NUMA machine. We suggest launching mongod like this to avoid performance problems: numactl --interleave=all mongod [other options]

mongo > show databases;
admin    0.000GB
config   0.000GB
graylog  0.034GB
local    0.000GB
test     0.000GB
mongo > use graylog
switched to db graylog

Now I will list the collections, Looking for dashboards.

Now lets see all the dashboard metadata in Mongo :smiley:
As you can see from the screenshot there is none, :thinking:

Not sure what’s going on.

What I have tried was restarting MongoDb, Graylog service hoping this would populate the metadata, No Joy.

Executed the following command, No Joy.

sudo mongod --repair --dbpath /var/lib/mongo

Even rebooted the server, No Joy
Here is the log file for MongoDb after restarting service.

@                                                                                     

For testing, I created a new dashboard, No Joy. Unable to find Metadata in MongoDb about dashboards.

Am I just going crazy but how does this functions without any saved settings in Mongo, OR is Graylog saving these settings some other place that I do not know about.

  • Graylog Server 4.3.3 12 cores, 12 GB RAM, 500GB HDD
  • Elasticsearch 7.10
  • MongoDb 4.4.15
  • CentOS 7 (latest)

I must be tired, I just found it under “VIEWS” :laughing:

mongo > db.views.find().pretty();
