NetBackup™ for MongoDB Ops Manager Administrator's Guide

Feature flags for NetBackup integration

The following feature flags are relevant for integrating NetBackup with MongoDB Ops Manager:

  • mms.featureFlag.backup.thirdPartyManaged

    This is the required and supported feature flag for enabling third‑party backup integration.

    Note:

    The flag value is set to controlled.

  • brs.thirdparty.baseOplogFilePath

    This setting defines the directory used by the MongoDB agent to store transaction log (TLOG) data. This setting is required for point‑in‑time recovery scenarios.

  • brs.thirdparty.extraLoggingEnabled

    This is an optional setting used only for troubleshooting and debugging purposes.

Note:

The feature flag mms.featureFlag.backup.thirdPartyWithManagedOplog is deprecated and has no effect on Ops Manager behavior. This flag is not required for NetBackup integration and should not be used.

For more information, see the MongoDB Ops Manager documentation on enabling third‑party backup.
