Add Atlas FAQ: "What happens when I reach my storage limit"?

    • Type: Icon: Improvement Improvement
    • Resolution: Fixed
    • Priority: Icon: Major - P3 Major - P3
    • None
    • Affects Version/s: None
    • Component/s: Atlas

      The Atlas FAQ and documentation does not appear to describe what happens when the storage limit for the current tier is reached:

      • For M0 (free tier) the maximum storage size is a hard limit. Additional storage can be added by upgrading to a paid cluster.
      • Paid clusters will auto-expand storage by default based on disk usage thresholds. This setting can be disabled if a fixed storage limit is preferable.

      I suggest including expected error message and behaviour as well as a link to the DB Storage alerts that can be set.

      Example error message:

      WriteResult({
        "writeError": {
          "code": 8000,
          "errmsg": "you are over your space quota, using 513 MB of 512 MB"
        }
      })
