Runtime Environment
The name of the runtime environment where you want to run the tasks.
Host and Port
An SRV record or a comma-separated list of host_name:port pairs.
Note: If you are using the MongoDB replica set mode, you can enter multiple host names for resilience. If one host is not available, another specified host will be used.
SRV
Select this check box if you specified an SRV record in Host and Port property.
Authentication
The authentication method for establishing a secure connection. Select one of the following authenication modes:
  • - Username and Password. Uses the user name and password credentials to connect to the MongoDB server.

If you selected X.509 authentication, the absolute path of the keystore file on the Secure Agent machine that contains the keys and certificates required for secure communication. The keystore file must be in JKS format.
Ensure that you download the certificates and place them in the Secure Agent machine before you specify this property.
To successfully test the connection, the Secure Agent must have access to the specified keystore and truststore files using the passwords provided. If you use a Secure Agent group, all agents must have access to these files. Place a copy of the files on every machine where a Secure Agent runs.
SSL KeyStore Password
If you selected X.509 authentication, the password for the keystore file that is required for secure communication.
