OPERATIONAL DEFECT DATABASE

We are using MongoDB Version 5.0.23. During our HA testing, we found that if the Shard Server loses a Secondary and if only a Primary and arbiter is running then the reads to the Shard Server fail with the error StaleConfig (13388).

JIRAUSER1262513 commented on Mon, 25 Mar 2024 14:48:21 +0000: Hi edwin.zhou@mongodb.com Thanks for re-opening the issue and the support. JIRAUSER1257066 commented on Mon, 25 Mar 2024 14:45:11 +0000: Hi raghu.chandrasekaran@appviewx.com, thank you for the clarification and for pointing to SERVER-78115. If a 3 node replica set contains an arbiter, and if a data bearing node goes down, there is no way for the shard to make a majority committed write since arbiters contribute to the number of nodes in a replica set. I will open this ticket back up and send this over to the appropriate team to consider the impact of SERVER-78115 on shards with the PSA topology. Kind regards, Edwin JIRAUSER1262513 commented on Mon, 25 Mar 2024 13:58:53 +0000: edwin.zhou@mongodb.com This is a bug report and not a post to seek help. MongoDB's availability fails in PSA deployments when the secondary is lost for a Shard Server in a sharded deployment. The same scenario works in 5.0.20 and fails in 5.0.23. A possible reason for this issue might be https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/SERVER-78115. We have set up Shard Servers in two data centers as a PSA deployment with one data center having a data-bearing member and the other having two (Primary and Arbiter). Whenever we bring down the data center with a single secondary member, we encounter this issue. This issue is occurring only in versions >= 5.0.23. When all of the data centers were operational, refreshing the internal cache (Catalog Cache) took only milliseconds. JIRAUSER1257066 commented on Mon, 25 Mar 2024 13:51:38 +0000: Hi raghu.chandrasekaran@appviewx.com, For this issue we'd like to encourage you to start by asking our community for help by posting on the MongoDB Developer Community Forums. If the discussion there leads you to suspect a bug in the MongoDB server, then we'd want to investigate it as a possible bug here in the SERVER project. Kind regards, Edwin
1) Setup a Shard Server as PSA. 2) Bring down the Secondary. 3) Attempt read operations. If the issue is not reproducible then repeat step 3 after restarting the primary so that the cache is lost.
