ISSUE SUMMARY
Because arbiters do not replicate data, they do not have a copy of a replica set's credentials, and therefore refuse all authentication attempts when auth is required. As a result certain operations required for basic maintenance and for integration with MMS, that were previousily available via the localhost exception, are no longer possible.
This change makes following operations available to clients that have access to an arbiter via the localhost exception:
- getCmdLineOpts
- serverStatus
- getParameter
- shutdown
WORKAROUNDS
None.
AFFECTED VERSIONS
3.0.0, 3.0.1, and 3.0.2
FIX VERSION
The fix is included in the 3.0.3 production release.
Original description
In 2.6, it was possible to shutdown an arbiter that was part of auth enabled replica-set. In 3.0 this is no longer possible due to access restriction and the only possible way to stop an arbiter is by performing a kill <pid>.
