This was the final support response I got on this (and I was not interested in re-onboarding all my devices with the new auth key). I'll happily just live with these messages once a day: "1. As found that "Auto mongo backup: Failed to backup database 'pan_ms' collection 'msak'" message is a benign message that occurs when there are no entries configured under: Panorama -> Device Registration Auth Key. 2.

It looks like none of the firewalls managed by this panorama has an authkey configured resulting in this message."
