            <title>[DOCS-10003] Clarification needed for serverStatus globalLock.activeClients.total</title>
                <link>https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/DOCS-10003</link>
                <project id="10380" key="DOCS">Documentation</project>
                    <description>&lt;p&gt;According to the serverStatus documentation &lt;a href=&quot;https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/command/serverStatus/#serverstatus.globalLock.activeClients.total&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow noopener&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;globalLock.activeClients.total&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt; is:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;The total number of active client connections to the database (i.e., the sum of globalLock.activeClients.readers and globalLock.activeClients.writers).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This used to be correct for MongoDB 2.6 and earlier, but MongoDB 3.0+ appears to have changed the calculation. The total is perhaps including internal system operations since it seems to align with the number of running operations as reported by &lt;tt&gt;db.currentOp(true).inprog.length&lt;/tt&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Example from MongoDB 3.4.2:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p/&gt;
&lt;div id=&quot;syntaxplugin&quot; class=&quot;syntaxplugin&quot; style=&quot;border: 1px dashed #bbb; border-radius: 5px !important; overflow: auto; max-height: 30em;&quot;&gt;
&lt;table cellspacing=&quot;0&quot; cellpadding=&quot;0&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; width=&quot;100%&quot; style=&quot;font-size: 1em; line-height: 1.4em !important; font-weight: normal; font-style: normal; color: black;&quot;&gt;
		&lt;tbody &gt;
				&lt;tr id=&quot;syntaxplugin_code_and_gutter&quot;&gt;
						&lt;td  style=&quot; line-height: 1.4em !important; padding: 0em; vertical-align: top;&quot;&gt;
					&lt;pre style=&quot;font-size: 1em; margin: 0 10px;  margin-top: 10px;   width: auto; padding: 0;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: black; font-family: &apos;Consolas&apos;, &apos;Bitstream Vera Sans Mono&apos;, &apos;Courier New&apos;, Courier, monospace !important;&quot;&gt;&amp;gt; db.serverStatus().globalLock.activeClients&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
			&lt;/td&gt;
		&lt;/tr&gt;
				&lt;tr id=&quot;syntaxplugin_code_and_gutter&quot;&gt;
						&lt;td  style=&quot; line-height: 1.4em !important; padding: 0em; vertical-align: top;&quot;&gt;
					&lt;pre style=&quot;font-size: 1em; margin: 0 10px;   width: auto; padding: 0;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: black; font-family: &apos;Consolas&apos;, &apos;Bitstream Vera Sans Mono&apos;, &apos;Courier New&apos;, Courier, monospace !important;&quot;&gt;{&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
			&lt;/td&gt;
		&lt;/tr&gt;
				&lt;tr id=&quot;syntaxplugin_code_and_gutter&quot;&gt;
						&lt;td  style=&quot; line-height: 1.4em !important; padding: 0em; vertical-align: top;&quot;&gt;
					&lt;pre style=&quot;font-size: 1em; margin: 0 10px;   width: auto; padding: 0;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: black; font-family: &apos;Consolas&apos;, &apos;Bitstream Vera Sans Mono&apos;, &apos;Courier New&apos;, Courier, monospace !important;&quot;&gt;  &quot;total&quot;: 11,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
			&lt;/td&gt;
		&lt;/tr&gt;
				&lt;tr id=&quot;syntaxplugin_code_and_gutter&quot;&gt;
						&lt;td  style=&quot; line-height: 1.4em !important; padding: 0em; vertical-align: top;&quot;&gt;
					&lt;pre style=&quot;font-size: 1em; margin: 0 10px;   width: auto; padding: 0;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: black; font-family: &apos;Consolas&apos;, &apos;Bitstream Vera Sans Mono&apos;, &apos;Courier New&apos;, Courier, monospace !important;&quot;&gt;  &quot;readers&quot;: 0,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
			&lt;/td&gt;
		&lt;/tr&gt;
				&lt;tr id=&quot;syntaxplugin_code_and_gutter&quot;&gt;
						&lt;td  style=&quot; line-height: 1.4em !important; padding: 0em; vertical-align: top;&quot;&gt;
					&lt;pre style=&quot;font-size: 1em; margin: 0 10px;   width: auto; padding: 0;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: black; font-family: &apos;Consolas&apos;, &apos;Bitstream Vera Sans Mono&apos;, &apos;Courier New&apos;, Courier, monospace !important;&quot;&gt;  &quot;writers&quot;: 0&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
			&lt;/td&gt;
		&lt;/tr&gt;
				&lt;tr id=&quot;syntaxplugin_code_and_gutter&quot;&gt;
						&lt;td  style=&quot; line-height: 1.4em !important; padding: 0em; vertical-align: top;&quot;&gt;
					&lt;pre style=&quot;font-size: 1em; margin: 0 10px;   margin-bottom: 10px;  width: auto; padding: 0;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;color: black; font-family: &apos;Consolas&apos;, &apos;Bitstream Vera Sans Mono&apos;, &apos;Courier New&apos;, Courier, monospace !important;&quot;&gt;}&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
			&lt;/td&gt;
		&lt;/tr&gt;
			&lt;/tbody&gt;
&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p/&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The description of &quot;client connections&quot; also makes it easy to conflate this with the metric users are probably looking for: &lt;a href=&quot;https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/command/serverStatus/#connections&quot; class=&quot;external-link&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow noopener&quot;&gt;&lt;tt&gt;db.serverStatus().connections.current&lt;/tt&gt;&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

                            <comment id="1532559" author="milkie" created="Fri, 24 Mar 2017 21:00:07 +0000"  >&lt;p&gt;I think the stats are confusing; why would &quot;total currentQueue&quot; be the sum of queued readers and queued writers, but &quot;total activeClients&quot; be totally divergent from the count of active readers and active writers?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I will file a SERVER ticket to consider changing the stat here to something more useful.  We can use this ticket to document the change.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
