restore data question about mongodb_consistent_backup HOT 4 OPEN

That's an interesting problem @yangzan66. Could you provide the full output of mongorestore --version?

It may be possible to work around this by doing a single-database restore passing --db=config to mongorestore (instead of an "all" databases restore). Config servers should only have that single-database anyways.

Hello,
thanks for you reply. the source mongo cluster and the target mongo cluster are the same one. is it the reason?
must I restore the data to a new cluster?
I really want to restore only one database, but it alway report that it's conflict with --oplogReplay .

[root@dbsrvm-mongobackup latest]# mongorestore --host 172.17.11.218 --port 27017 --oplogReplay --db=config --gzip --dir /mongobackup/172.17.11.218/default/latest/configRS/dump/

###I create a new mongo cluster(172.17.1.88) as the target cluster, but the problem are the same.

[root@dbsrvm-mongobackup mongobackup]# mongorestore --host 172.17.1.88 --port 27017 --oplogReplay --gzip --dir /mongobackup/172.17.11.218/default/latest/configRS/dump/

###if add --db option:
[root@dbsrvm-mongobackup mongobackup]# mongorestore --host 172.17.1.88 --port 27017 --oplogReplay --db=config --gzip --dir /mongobackup/172.17.11.218/default/latest/configRS/dump/

2019-05-30T09:31:15.841+0800 Failed: cannot use --oplogReplay with includes specified

###when I only restore the shard1, it reports error " applyOps not allowed through mongos",as follows:
mongorestore --host 172.17.1.88 --port 27017 --oplogReplay --gzip --dir /mongobackup/172.17.11.218/default/latest/shard1/dump/

###is that what I did wrong? the culster doesn't uses Authentication, my backup command and config file as follows:

mongodb-consistent-backup -H 172.17.11.218 --config /etc/mongodb-consistent-backup.conf

[root@dbsrvm-mongobackup mongobackup]# grep -v "#" /etc/mongodb-consistent-backup.conf
