Environment

Release:
Component: UIMMGM

Resolution

The probe tries to find MongoDB on popular ports. For example, ports 27017, 27018, 27019, 27020, 27021, 30000.
If different port(s) is in use, it is required to add a port to this list by using GUI probe utility "add ports" call as follows: 

1. highlight/select the mongodb probe in Infrastructure Manager or Admin Console 
2. Press CTRL+P in IM to open the probe utility, or choose "Probe Utility" from the menu in Admin Console 
3. Using the probe utility you can execute "add_ports" and provide the port you want to add, and this will add this port to the list of ports the probe checks.
