      • Create a database
      • Create a collection with one structure
      • Define a validator on the collection that enforces a different structure, throwing an error if the structure is incorrect.
      • Add new documents that observe the new structure
      • Use the copyDatabase() to copy this database to a new location
      • This copy should fail due to validation

Add new documents that observe the new structure Use the copyDatabase() to copy this database to a new location This copy should fail due to validation

      when calling the command db.copyDatabase() the command will fail if one of the documents in a collection fails document validation. This probably isn't a bug but it is undesirable behaviour. When requesting a copy of a database that is what I want, a copy, warts and all.

      In my case this problem comes about because in the early days of my database I didn't have document validation in place. Later on I put validation in place and enforced it strictly.
