Mongodb Node JS serverStatus 总是返回false

Question

I'm new to mongo and am messing around with the admin serverStatus. For me, it always returns false when I am expecting an object. I'm running mongod with auth enabled. Are there specific user privs that are required? I can't find much documentation other than what is supplied by the API docs from the nodejs drivers or the mongodb manual.

MonogDB 3.4 NodeJS drivers 2.2

var MongoClient = require('mongodb').MongoClient;
MongoClient.connect('mongodb://user:pass@localhost:27017/test?authMechanism=DEFAULT&authSource=test', function(err, db) {
  var adminDB = db.admin();
  adminDB.serverStatus(function(err, status) {
    console.log(status);
    db.close();
  });
});

Thanks!

I found the answer. With auth enabled databases you need to grant a role to the executing user with the serverStatus action.

db.createRole(
   {
     role: "mongostatRole",
     privileges: [
       { resource: { cluster: true }, actions: [ "serverStatus" ] }
     ],
     roles: []
   }
)
