**Is this OK？**  
input {  
mongodb {  
database =\> "my\_db"  
uri =\> "mongodb://szxtsv12066mgd:27017"  
codec =\> json  
}  
}

output {  
elasticsearch {  
hosts =\> ["127.0.0.1:9201","127.0.0.1:9202"]  
}  
}

Looks like you cannot connect to install the plugin.  
However there is no mongodb input plugin for 2.1.1 - [https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/2.1/input-plugins.html](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/logstash/2.1/input-plugins.html)

Well from what I can see there was no input like that that we provided going back to 1.5.  
So you may have to find a community one that does it.
