Following question Mongodb sharded cluster backup user issue
I have a sharded mongodb cluster, with 4 shards, and I'm required to stop the mongod service on each shard, and start it not as a part of a shared cluster, but as a standalone with no authentication.
Today, each shard is configured with the options:
shardsvr=true
keyFile=/etc/mongodb.key
If i comment out these 2 options, will I be able to start the service as standalone with no auth?
Moreover, is there any possible impact on the data/configuration once i finish what I need to do and uncomment the both configuration options?
Thanks in advance
