sh.commitReshardCollection()

Definition

sh.commitReshardCollection(namespace)

New in version 5.0.

During a resharding operation, MongoDB does not block writes until the estimated duration to complete the resharding operation is below two seconds.

If the current estimate is above two seconds but the time frame is acceptable to you, you can finish resharding faster. The sh.commitReshardCollection() method blocks writes early and forces the resharding operation to complete.

The mongosh method sh.commitReshardCollection() wraps the commitReshardCollection command.

Syntax

The sh.commitReshardCollection() method has the following syntax:

sh.commitReshardCollection( <namespace> )

Parameter

The sh.commitReshardCollection() method takes the following parameter:

Parameter Type Description
namespace String

The name of the collection to shard in the form "<database>.<collection>".

Example

Commit a Resharding Operation

The following command forces the resharding operation on the sales.orders to block writes and complete:

sh.commitReshardCollection("sales.orders")
