There are two issues here: 1) A ShardingTest can be started with autosplit enabled or disabled through the "enableAutoSplit" option. Autosplit can be disabled later through st.disableAutoSplit(), but there is no helper to re-enable it. 2) If not specified, enableAutoSplit defaults to the enableBalancer setting (which defaults to false). However, autosplit is not toggled on start/stopBalancer. Should it be? Note: On 3.2, re-enabling autosplit at runtime would require restarting mongoses. |

Correction: for issue 1 in the description, there actually is an enableAutoSplit helper in utils_sh.js that gets transferred to ShardingTest: https://github.com/mongodb/mongo/blob/3.3.12/src/mongo/shell/shardingtest.js#L173 |
