Q62. What happens to a Replica set oplog if it runs out of memory?

The oplog will be saved on one of the secondary servers.
The oplog is capped collection and can't run out of memory
The MongoDB instance will fail
The oplog will stop recording logging information

Argument:

Why “The oplog will be saved on one of the secondary servers.” is wrong:

MongoDB applies database operations on the primary and then records the operations on the primary’s oplog. The secondary members then copy and apply these operations in an asynchronous process. All replica set members contain a copy of the oplog, in the local.oplog.rs collection, which allows them to maintain the current state of the database.

Reasoning behind the right answer:

The oplog (operations log) is a special capped collection that keeps a rolling record of all operations that modify the data stored in your databases.

Unlike other capped collections, the oplog can grow past its configured size limit to avoid deleting the majority commit point.

Q63. MongoDB ships with a variety of files. Which file runs the MongoDB shell?

mongo
mongo-s
shell
mongo-shell

Note: mongosh is the new mongo shell, mongo is deprecated.

Starting in MongoDB v5.0, mongosh replaces mongo as the preferred shell.

db.members.aggregate([ {$match: {gender: "Female"}}, {$group:{_id: {city: "$city"}, number: {$sum: 1}}}, {$sort: {number: -1}}]).explain()
db.members.aggregate([ {$match: {gender: """Female"""}}, {$group: {_id: {city: """$city"""}, number: {$sum:1}}}, {$sort: {number: -1}}]).number()

Q67. Suppose you are using the `mongoimport` command to import personnel data and there is a unique index on the email field. What happens when there are duplicate emails in the import?

The import command aborts without importing any records.
The import command imports records upto but not including the record, and then aborts.
The import command doesn’t import the bad document but does import the rest.
The import command prompts you to correct the bad record.

Note: By default, mongoimport continues an operation when it encounters duplicate key and document validation errors.

Reference

Q68. You have a collection with millions of documents. Each time you attempt to sort. MongoDB runs out of memory. What might help?

Use the purge operator before the sort.
Return the entire collection and sort on the client.

Create a $regex on the fields, and do a $regex query.

Argument: You need a text index in order to perform a $text query on a field. $text query uses the text index under the hood

References: $text query Text index

Q71. After installing MongoDB on your machine, what must you do before launching Mongo?

Create a user account.
Register online.
Create a data directory.
Establish security credentials.

Note: The question in case is ambiguous. In the mongo docs, on the Windows Installation section, it clearly specifies the need for creating a data directory. However, that does not seem to be the case for Unix based systems. So, that gives use the closest possible solution for a specific platform. If we extrapolate that to the question, that seems to be the most reasonable solution.

Q79. You need to add an index to the large name collection in your production database. You do not want to have disruption of service for your users and you can’t afford to have a team to do the work during after hours. What should you do?

Use the reIndex() command to add the index quickly.
Use the createIndex() command with the option background = true.

MongoDB reference

Concurrency Changed in version 4.2.

MongoDB uses an optimized build process that obtains and holds an exclusive lock on the specified collection at the start and end of the index build. All subsequent operations on the collection must wait until createIndex() releases the exclusive lock. createIndex() allows interleaving read and write operations during the majority of the index build.

For more information on the locking behavior of createIndex(), see Index Builds on Populated Collections.
