Overview dconf is a simple key-based configuration system. Keys exist in an unstructured database but it is intended that keys that logically belong together are grouped together. Change notification is supported. Stacking of multiple configuration sources is supported. Mandatory keys are supported.
The stacking can be done at "mount points". A single configuration source may appear at multiple points in the hierarchy. This means that programs like the GDM configuration utility no longer have to be run as root.
Typically, reading a key from dconf involves zero system calls and zero context switches. If a match is found, mongod or mongos applies the transformation and uses the output for authenticating the user. If the given document does not match the provided authentication name, mongod or mongos continues through the list of documents to find additional matches.
If no matches are found in any document, or the transformation the document describes fails, mongod or mongos returns an error. Starting in MongoDB 5. Previously, providing an empty mapping document would cause mapping to fail. The following shows two transformation documents. The second document matches against any string ending in DBA , placing anything preceeding the suffix into a regex capture group. COM matches the first document.
A user with username bob DBA. COM matches the second document. If userToDNMapping is unset, mongod or mongos applies no transformations to the username when attempting to authenticate or authorize a user against the LDAP server.
This setting can be configured on a running mongod or mongos using the setParameter database command. The query is relative to the host or hosts specified in security. Substitutes the supplied username, i. If your query includes an attribute, mongod assumes that the query retrieves a list of the DNs which this entity is a member of. If your query does not include an attribute, mongod assumes the query retrieves all entities which the user is member of.
For each LDAP DN returned by the query, mongod assigns the authorized user a corresponding role on the admin database. If a role on the on the admin database exactly matches the DN, mongod grants the user the roles and privileges assigned to that role.
See the db. Your LDAP configuration may not include the memberOf attribute as part of the user schema, may possess a different attribute for reporting group membership, or may not track group membership through attributes. Configure your query with respect to your own unique LDAP configuration. If unset, mongod cannot authorize users using LDAP.
This setting can be configured on a running mongod using the setParameter database command. A flag that determines if the mongod or mongos instance checks the availability of the LDAP server s as part of its startup:. For example, to specify the enableLocalhostAuthBypass in the configuration file:.
The interval in seconds mongod waits between external user cache flushes. Conversely, decreasing the value specified decreases the time mongod and the LDAP server can be out of sync while increasing the load on the LDAP server. MongoDB deprecates storage. The option has no effect starting in MongoDB 4. The directory where the mongod instance stores its data. The storage. The default mongod. The Linux package init scripts do not expect storage. If you use the Linux packages and change storage.
Default : true on bit systems, false on bit systems. Enable or disable the durability journal to ensure data files remain valid and recoverable. This option applies only when you specify the storage. Not available for mongod instances that use the in-memory storage engine. The maximum amount of time in milliseconds that the mongod process allows between journal operations.
Values can range from 1 to milliseconds. Lower values increase the durability of the journal, at the expense of disk performance.
On WiredTiger, the default journal commit interval is milliseconds. Additionally, a write that includes or implies j:true will cause an immediate sync of the journal. For details or additional conditions that affect the frequency of the sync, see Journaling Process. Known Issue in 4. When true , MongoDB uses a separate directory to store data for each database. The directories are under the storage. To change the storage. The amount of time that can pass before MongoDB flushes data to the data files via an fsync operation.
Do not set this value on production systems. In almost every situation, you should use the default setting. If you set storage. The mongod process writes data very quickly to the journal and lazily to the data files.
The storage engine for the mongod database. Available values include:. If you attempt to start a mongod with a storage. For example, a value of 1. The value must be greater than or equal to 0. A value of 0 indicates that the mongod should truncate the oplog starting with the oldest entries to maintain the configured maximum oplog size. A mongod started with oplogMinRetentionHours only removes an oplog entry if :.
The mongod has the following behavior when configured with a minimum oplog retention period:. To change the minimum oplog retention period after starting the mongod , use replSetResizeOplog. Defines the maximum size of the internal cache that WiredTiger will use for all data. Values can range from 0. Conversely, a system with a total of 1. In some instances, such as when running in a container, the database can have memory constraints that are lower than the total system memory.
In such instances, this memory limit, rather than the total system memory, is used as the maximum RAM available. To see the memory limit, see hostInfo.
Via the filesystem cache, MongoDB automatically uses all free memory that is not used by the WiredTiger cache or by other processes. The operating system will use the available free memory for filesystem cache, which allows the compressed MongoDB data files to stay in memory. In addition, the operating system will use any free RAM to buffer file system blocks and file system cache. To accommodate the additional consumers of RAM, you may have to decrease WiredTiger internal cache size.
The default WiredTiger internal cache size value assumes that there is a single mongod instance per machine. If a single machine contains multiple MongoDB instances, then you should decrease the setting to accommodate the other mongod instances.
If you run mongod in a container e. The exact amount depends on the other processes running in the container. See memLimitMB.
When storage. Specifically, mongod stores the indexes in a subdirectory named index and the collection data in a subdirectory named collection. By using a symbolic link, you can specify a different location for the indexes.
Specifically, when mongod instance is not running, move the index subdirectory to the destination and create a symbolic link named index under the data directory to the new destination. MongoDB deprecates the storage. The file no longer exists starting in version 4. Specifies the level of compression applied when using the zstd compressor.
The higher the specified value for zstdCompressionLevel the higher the compression which is applied. Only applicable when blockCompressor is set to zstd. Specifies the default compression for collection data. You can override this on a per-collection basis when creating collections. If you change the value of storage. Existing collections will continue to use the compressor specified when they were created, or the default compressor at that time. Enables or disables prefix compression for index data.
Specify true for storage. Existing indexes are not affected. Maximum amount of memory to allocate for in-memory storage engine data, including indexes, oplog if the mongod is part of replica set, replica set or sharded cluster metadata, etc.
Specifies which operations should be profiled. The following profiler levels are available:. Profiling can impact performance and shares settings with the system log. Carefully consider any performance and security implications before configuring and enabling the profiler on a production deployment. See Profiler Overhead for more information on potential performance degradation.
The slow operation time threshold, in milliseconds. Operations that run for longer than this threshold are considered slow. At higher logLevel settings, all operations appear in the diagnostic log regardless of their latency with the following exception: the logging of slow oplog entry messages by the secondaries.
The secondaries log only the slow oplog entries; increasing the logLevel does not log all oplog entries. In earlier versions, slowOpThresholdMs is available for mongod only. The fraction of slow operations that should be profiled or logged. In earlier versions, slowOpSampleRate is available for mongod only.
When you set a profile filter in the configuration file, the filter applies to all databases in the deployment. To set a profile filter for a specific database, use the db.
To specify a profiling filter in a configuration file , you must:. For example, the following filter configures the profiler to log query operations that take longer than 2 seconds:. The maximum size in megabytes for the replication operation log i. By default, the mongod process creates an oplog based on the maximum amount of space available. Once the mongod has created the oplog for the first time, changing the replication. To change the maximum oplog size after starting the mongod , use replSetResizeOplog.
See Oplog Size for more information. The replication. The name of the replica set that the mongod is part of. All hosts in the replica set must have the same set name. If your application connects to more than one replica set, each set must have a distinct name.
Some drivers group replica set connections by replica set name. Configures support for "majority" read concern. Attempting to start a storage engine that does not support majority read concern with the --enableMajorityReadConcern option will fail and return an error message. If you are using a three-member primary-secondary-arbiter PSA architecture, the write concern "majority" can cause performance issues if a secondary is unavailable or lagging.
The role that the mongod instance has in the sharded cluster. Set this setting to one of the following:. Setting sharding. To deploy the instance as a replica set member, use the replSetName setting and specify the name of the replica set.
The sharding. When set, auditLog. Output the audit events to syslog in JSON format. Not available on Windows. Audit messages have a syslog severity level of info and a facility level of user. The syslog message limit can result in the truncation of audit messages. The auditing system will neither detect the truncation nor error upon its occurrence. The filter to limit the types of operations the audit system records. The option takes a string representation of a query document of the form:.
To specify an audit filter, enclose the filter document in single quotes to pass the document as a string. To specify the audit filter in a configuration file , you must use the YAML format of the configuration file. The format of the output file for auditing if destination is file. The auditLog.
The output file for auditing if destination has value of file. Specifies if a node allows runtime configuration of audit filters and the auditAuthorizationSuccess variable. If true the node can take part in Online Audit Filter Management. Disables SNMP access to mongod.
The option is incompatible with snmp. Set to true to disable SNMP access. The snmp. When snmp. The ping time, in milliseconds, that mongos uses to determine which secondary replica set members to pass read operations from clients.
The default value of 15 corresponds to the default value in all of the client drivers. When mongos receives a request that permits reads to secondary members, the mongos will:. Construct a list of replica set members that is within a ping time of 15 milliseconds of the nearest suitable member of the set. If you specify a value for the replication. The ping time used for a member compared by the replication. As a result, some queries may reach members above the threshold until the mongos recalculates the average.
See the Read Preference for Replica Sets section of the read preference documentation for more information. The configuration servers for the sharded cluster. The replica set config servers must run the WiredTiger storage engine.
MongoDB 3. Specify the config server replica set name and the hostname and port of at least one of the members of the config server replica set. The mongos instances for the sharded cluster must specify the same config server replica set name but can specify hostname and port of different members of the replica set. The service name of mongos or mongod when running as a Windows Service. You must use processManagement. Run mongos or mongod service description.
The mongos or mongod service in the context of a certain user. This user must have "Log on as a service" privileges. Version 5. YAML does not support tab characters for indentation: use spaces instead. Expansion Directive. For example, for New York at the start of the Epoch: T Displays timestamps in local time in the ISO format. You can enable or disable free monitoring during runtime. Enables free monitoring at startup; i. When enabled at startup, you cannot disable free monitoring during runtime.
Disables free monitoring at startup, regardless of whether you have previously registered for free monitoring. Add a comment.

Introduction As other answers on this site discuss gconf and dconf together, I will just concentrate on discussing command-line tools such as gsettings and the gui dconf-editor that are used to access the dconf database. Using gsettings to view and change settings Once one gets to know gsettings it can be as easy as the gui dconf-editor.
To list all the available schemas, enter gsettings list-schemas To also include all the keys, enter gsettings list-recursively However , it is usually easier to specify what you want with, for examples, gsettings list-schemas grep -i shotwell This returns a long list; I have shortened it to: org.
Using dconf-editor to change settings The GUI program, dconf-editor is installed with dconf-tools package by clicking here or by running sudo apt-get install dconf-tools Then run it by entering in the terminal or in the quick launch menu, dconf-editor.
Conclusion There are many other useful ways that you can tweak settings with both gsettings and dconf-editor and they are straightforward to use. As fossfreedom recently showed in this question How do I edit the list of music library locations in Rhythmbox? See also: How do I use the gconf editor? Improve this answer. Pablo Bianchi 9, 3 3 gold badges 48 48 silver badges 89 89 bronze badges. Since the programs gsettings and dconf-editor work both on the dconf database, why don't they show the same information?
Launcher and the key favorites but dconf-editor does not even offer com. Unity let alone the full schema or the key. H: good question. I've asked it here: askubuntu. I'm sorry that I forgot to answer your comment: I can't comment on Unity because I'm on Xubuntu, but Flimm has asked a separate question which should get some good answers. But what on earth makes dconf incompatible with Qt, a GUI toolkit?
Show 1 more comment. It's not only gnome equivalent, but all DE Desktop Environment equivalent. Prado Not true, not all DE use dconf. You completed my comment. What is the relationship between dconf and gconf? The question in psusi 's comment above is partially answered in the answers to the question " Why the controversy about dconf and gconf? I'm sure psusi is aware of it, having commented on the question, but in case anyone else wants to know more, there it is. Sign up or log in Sign up using Google.
