    Description

      If you attempt to run replSetInitiate() on a mongod that was not started with --replSet, and this isn't for a CSRS upgrade, you will get a mysterious error message:

      { "ok" : 0, "errmsg" : "Missing expected field \"version\"", "code" : 93 }

      This is because we skip adding the version field for non-replsets, and we try to validate the config before we detect the issue.
