 Description   

There does not seem to be consensus on this. For example, Under the Software Requirements section, MongoDB, is the following quote: "The MongoDB databases backing MMS must be MongoDB 2.4.9 or later. The MongoDB replica sets and sharded clusters to be backed up must be running MongoDB 2.4.3 or later."

Also:

https://jira.mongodb.org/secure/attachment/34148/backup-manual.txt

DOCS-1527 says it will work for all replica sets >= 2.0 and sharded clusters >= 2.4.3

https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/DOCS-1527

This FAQ says it works for all replica sets >= 2.2 and sharded clusters >= 2.4.3

http://mms.mongodb.com/help/faq/backup/

According to Cailin it should be >= 2.2 for replica sets and >= 2.4.3 for sharded clusters.

Sam I don't know why you closed this, the documentation is still incorrect.

https://mms.mongodb.com/help-hosted/current/core/requirements/

Says "The MongoDB replica sets and sharded clusters to be backed up must be running MongoDB 2.4.3 or later."

When in reality it is 2.2.0 for replica sets and 2.4.3 for sharded clusters.

Also the internal FAQ is incorrect, though maybe that is owned by someone not on your team.

https://wiki.mongodb.com/display/mcs/Backup+FAQ

" BRS DOES work for replica sets from 2.0+"

If that second issue needs to be fixed by someone else please reassign the ticket to them instead of just closing it out, having this incorrect information out there (even internally) is frustrating for those of us who rely on it.

Thanks!

there is no reference to support of 2.0 mongodb instances.
