Description
This is the current documentation about seeding a secondary
*https://docs.opsmanager.mongodb.com/current/tutorial/use-restore-to-seed-secondary/#considerations
*https://docs.cloud.mongodb.com/tutorial/use-restore-to-seed-secondary/#considerations
In these documentation, there is a paragraph as follows
"Seeding a new secondary from a backup restore requires an oplog window on the current primary that spans back to the snapshot’s timestamp."
It's not true. Seeding a new secondary does not require oplog window on current primary. As long as the oplog window of any replica set member is sufficient, seeding a new secondary will work.
Therefore, we advise to change it to
"Seeding a new secondary from a backup restore requires an oplog window on at least one replica set member that spans back to the snapshot’s timestamp."
