Description

Looking at this link we are still telling customer to contact support to resize the oplog. Should we remove this and informed customer how to do that themselves now that it is possible?

Scope of changes

  • Update the FAQ item in question to remove the admonition
  • point users towards the additional options dialog (for create/modify)
  • Clarify that users cannot resize the oplog using replSetResizeOplog (confirm w/ engineering)

Yeap I saw that. I think it is important to keep/update the "How To" (like in my previous comment) in the FAQ anyway.

Whoops. You're correct, that's documented here. I should have known that, I wrote the docs for it. So much for memory. Triaging shortly.

A user can resize the oplog in Atlas doing:

1. Login to Atlas UI with your account
2. Click on ...
3. Click on "EDIT CONFIGURATION>Additional Settings>More Configuration Options"
4. Set the oplog size to the desired value and click on "Apply Changes"

As per our documentation, replSetResizeOplog is not supported by the available privileges. To my knowledge this has not changed.

cc andrew.davidson to confirm this is still the case. cc jonathan.destefano for docs visibility.
