{{/var/lib/mongodb/mydb/collection-5-5764035363882532292.wt What do the names mean? How about naming them 'mycollection', index_id, index_my_index_name, or something else useful? |

Hello chris.kuethe@gmail.com, Thank you for the report. The names are the URIs of the indexes and collections. You can see which files correspond to which collections/indexes with the following script:
I've set the fixVersion to "Needs Triage" for this new feature to be scheduled against our currently planned work. Updates will be posted on this ticket as they happen. Thanks, |
