Description
Our mongod (single server instance) crashes often (but not always) after running a nightly backup with mongodump. The mongodump command executes succesfully, but after that new connections fail (connection timeout). The only thing we can do is to restart the server.
Some information:
- There is no information in de log files (the last entry is the connection of the backup user)
- The application mainly uses one collection with about 500.000 documents
- The problem occurs since there is traffic on the application, there wasn't a problem before that. During the run of mongodump there are concurrent reads from the database
- We did try a database repair a couple of times, but this didn't help
- The only this we changed in de default configuration is that we turned authentication on
