launchd system permissions

I am launching PM2 using launchd. I register it like:

launchctl bootstrap system /Library/LaunchDaemons/pm2.root.list

After bootup, PM2 is setup to run a node.js app as root user. "pm2 list" confirms that indeed it is running as root. But the app fails to contact mongodb with a timeout! The app can download a homepage from the internet, so it is not because the app is missing access to the internet. If I login as root and run "pm2 restart node_app_id", the app is now able to contact atlas mongodb.

Does the "system" parameter when registering PM2 with launchd port-restrict my app somehow or what could be the issue here?

Thanks in advance

Have you searched the documentation for insight to your third party...
