      Install a version of mongo before 3.4.11.
      Use yum/rpm to upgrade to 3.4.11/12/13.
      Use systemctl to stop/start mongo and it will not do so until you do the daemon-reload.
      Which is fine for humans, but when your mongo installation is controlled by scripts, they get very confused that the start/stop script no longer does what it should.

      In SERVER-31225 the systemd script was changed. But the RPM package did not get updated to add a daemon-reload

      # systemctl start mongod
Warning: mongod.service changed on disk. Run 'systemctl daemon-reload' to reload units.
