Actually this is not a bug, rather please take it as a query/clarification.

I have a mongo replicaset on version 3.6. I want to upgrade it to 5.0. I do not want to perform the step by step upgrade process. Instead I want to create a new setup i.e replicaset in version 5.0.

I want to migrate the data to the new setup. I am planning to do the below steps:

1. Take mongo dump using mongodump command in version 3.6

2. Transfer the dump to the new instance

3. Restore the dump in version 7.0 using mongorestore command

Please let me know if it is feasible.

Thanks,

Kiran
