      create a collection with index 

      {targetId : 1 ,timestamp: -1}, {unique : true}

      shard collection with with key 

      { targetId: "hashed"}

      drop index 

      {targetId : 1 ,timestamp: -1}

      try to recreate index 

       {targetId : 1 ,timestamp: -1}, {unique : true}

      create a collection with index {targetId : 1 ,timestamp: -1}, {unique : true} shard collection with with key { targetId: "hashed"} drop index {targetId : 1 ,timestamp: -1} try to recreate index {targetId : 1 ,timestamp: -1}, {unique : true}

      We want to creat a compound index in a sharded collection with a hashed sharding key.

      The non hashed shard key is a prefix of the compound index.

      If we create the index before we shard the collection, mongodb does not complain about the index.

      {
	"err" : "can't use unique indexes with sharding  ns:test.collection key: { targetId: 1.0, timestamp: -1.0 }",
	"code" : 10205,
	"n" : 0,
	"ok" : 1
}
