logRotate command issued on secondary node through connection string from pymongo rotating primary node’s log. How to rotate the secondary mongodb log?
My current approach:
conn = pymongo.MongoClient(port=dbport)
conn.admin.command({“logRotate”:1})

its localhost - primary node is on another server
replicaset has primary, secondary, arbiter
using:
mongodb server 4.2.2
pymongo 4.1

what am I missing?

By default the client driver will automatically discover the replica set and connect to the primary. To connect directly to the node you will need to add the parameter directConnection=True as a URI option or keyword argument.

Thank you Chris, adding directConnection=True to connection worked.
