Parameters

Parameter Choices/Defaults Comments
arbiter_at_index
integer
Identifies the position of the member in the array that is an arbiter.
auth_mechanism
string

  • MONGODB-X509
  • GSSAPI
  • PLAIN
Authentication type.
chaining_allowed
boolean
    Choices:
  • no
  • yes ←
When settings.chaining_allowed=true, the replicaset allows secondary members to replicate from other secondary members.
When settings.chaining_allowed=false, secondaries can replicate only from the primary.
connection_options
list / elements=raw
Additional connection options.
Supply as a list of dicts or strings containing key value pairs seperated with '='.
election_timeout_millis
integer
Default:
10000
The time limit in milliseconds for detecting when a replicaset's primary is unreachable.
heartbeat_timeout_secs
integer
Default:
10
Number of seconds that the replicaset members wait for a successful heartbeat from each other.
If a member does not respond in time, other members mark the delinquent member as inaccessible.
The setting only applies when using protocol_version=0. When using protocol_version=1 the relevant setting is settings.election_timeout_millis.

members
list / elements=raw
Yaml list consisting of the replicaset members.
Csv string will also be accepted i.e. mongodb1:27017,mongodb2:27017,mongodb3:27017.
A dictionary can also be used to specify advanced replicaset member options.
If a port number is not provided then 27017 is assumed.
protocol_version
integer
    Choices:
  • 0
  • 1
Default:
1
Version of the replicaset election protocol.
replica_set
string
