Hi, I’ve got a Mender instance deployed on a VM. I want to implement some of my existing monitoring solutions for other services running on the same machine. For the first thing I am looking at, I want to monitor Mender’s instance of Mongodb using mongodb exporter. I’m using the standard deployment with docker compose. So, does anyone know what the default username/password and primary database name that Mender uses for the production database for MongoDB? If possible, can someone point me in the right direction in the documentation where I can find this? Thanks
