    Description

      First paragraph, sentence starts with Also and has no subject.

      Middle of page, sentence reads "Typically, filesystem snapshots are because of their accuracy and simplicity" - missing word, presumably "better"?

      In "replica set considerations" there is a bullet:
      "As an alternative you can create a backup with the mongodump program and the --oplog option. To restore this backup use the mongorestore program and the --oplogReplay option."

      This doesn't actually restore a replica set member, it restores its data. I think this may mislead someone into thinking that this restore would be ready to be added to a replica set (it won't be because it has no local DB and no oplog).
