    Description

      Per SERVER-22382, support for standard MongoDB Connection String URIs was added to mongo --host in MongoDB 3.4.

      Unfortunately this change also introduced a regression in support for the older syntax for connecting to replica sets via --host (SERVER-27289, with fix committed for 3.4.2).

      The new support for MongoDB URIs should be mentioned:
      https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/reference/program/mongo/#cmdoption--host.

      It would useful to note the regression as well, since a few users have run into this already.
