Description
The sh.setBalancerState() function in the mongo shell is coded thus:
sh.setBalancerState = function(isOn) { |
if (isOn) { |
return sh.startBalancer(); |
} else { |
return sh.stopBalancer(); |
}
|
};
|
As a consequence, running sh.setBalancerState("true") actually stops the balancer, as does sh.setBalancerState(). These are surprising results.
Suggest adding a type check to the code before the if statement:
if ((typeof isOn) != "boolean") { print error message and exit } |
