bgrabar The 2.6 docs need to explain how mongodump/restore database level backup/restore operations are accomplished under the new 2.6 user schema. In prior versions of MongoDB database level backup operations collected the database and all related local users in a single pass. With 2.6, users are now stored in the admin database, so admins must now run mongodump to collect a specific database and then mongodump a second time to collect the database specific users from the admin database.

Please coordinate documenting this with work on QA-404.
