    • Type: Icon: Bug Bug

      Example config:

      storage:
          dbPath: "/var/lib/mongodb"
          directoryPerDB: true
          engine: wiredTiger
          indexBuildRetry: true
          syncPeriodSecs: 60
          journal:
              enabled: true
          wiredTiger:
              engineConfig:
                  cacheSizeGB: 4
                  directoryForIndexes: true
      

      Sets the 37G for the cache_size (it should be 4GB):

      2016-01-04T20:39:08.518+0200 I STORAGE  [initandlisten] wiredtiger_open config: create,cache_size=37G,session_max=20000,eviction=(threads_max=4),config_base=false,statistics=(fast),log=(enabled=true,archive=true,path=journal,compressor=snappy),file_manager=(close_idle_time=100000),checkpoint=(wait=60,log_size=2GB),statistics_log=(wait=0)
      

      Startup option --wiredTigerCacheSizeGB=4 works well and sets the cache_size correctly:

      2016-01-26T23:23:21.584+0200 I STORAGE  [initandlisten] wiredtiger_open config: create,cache_size=4G,session_max=20000,eviction=(threads_max=4),config_base=false,statistics=fast),log=enabled=true,archive=true,path=journal,compressor=snappy),file_manaer=(close_idle_time=100000),checkpoint=(wait=60,log_size=2GB),statistics_log=(wait=0)
