Manage and reconfigure replica set options don't do anything?
andrew-vant opened this issue · comments
I'm trying to deploy some mongodb boxes and have them set up a replica set as part of the deployment. It looks like the manage/reconfigure replica set options in pillar.example are intended for that, but as far as I can tell they don't do anything.
Is this a missing feature or am I doing something wrong?
It is clearly not implemented.
In current implementation you're able just to specify any configuration parameter recognized by MongoDB >= 2.6 in mongodb:mongod_settings Pillar dictionary. But there are no special example of how to configure replication in the formula.
Coming back to this a few years later, it's now possible to configure the parameter, but it's done weirdly. It looks for settings:replSet when deciding whether to configure the relevant option, but takes the actual value from replica_set:name.
Appears to have been changed in #36 / 0ed0ad5, and might have been intended for backwards compatibility, I'm not sure.
