    Description

      Problem:
      A frequent request is to log any "DDL" operation that occurs
      – drop collection
      – ensureIndex
      – dropIndex
      – etc.

      This would allow an organization to audit these changes, info the could be recorded would be
      – operation
      – date / time
      – client connection (hostname, ip)
      – etc.

      Solution:
      There are a couple of possible way this could work

      • Log these operations into the existing log file
      • Log these operations into a Capped Collection (but will impact DB throughput)
      • Log these operations into a new audit log file
