replSetMaintenance

replSetMaintenance

The replSetMaintenance admin command enables or disables the maintenance mode for a secondary member of a replica set.

The command has the following prototype form:

{ replSetMaintenance: <boolean> }

Consider the following behavior when running the replSetMaintenance command:

  • You cannot run the command on the Primary.
  • You must run the command against the admin database.
  • When enabled replSetMaintenance: 1, the member enters the RECOVERING state. While the secondary is RECOVERING:
    • The member is not accessible for read operations.
    • The member continues to sync its oplog from the Primary.
