Edit a Database Resource¶
On this page
You can modify a deployment’s configuration and topology, including its MongoDB versions, storage engines, and numbers of hosts or shards. You can make modifications at all levels of a deployment’s topology from a top-level sharded cluster or replica set to lower levels, such as a replica set within a sharded cluster, or an individual process within a replica set. You can also modify standalone processes.
Considerations¶
- Changes cannot be made to individual members of a replica set or sharded cluster, only to the whole set or cluster.
- If a setting isn’t available for a MongoDB Kubernetes resource,
then the change must be made in the Ops Manager or
Cloud Manager application.
- MongoDB custom resources do not support all

- MongoDB custom resources do not support all
- Certain settings can only be configured using Kubernetes Operator. To review the list of settings, see MongoDB Kubernetes Operator Exclusive Settings.
