Chapter 3: Missing step in Lab Prerequisites

MongoDB University M103: Basic Cluster Administration
#1

The last two labs (Documents in Chunks and Detect Scatter Gather Queries) describe the same procedure in Lab Prerequisites section.

The missing thing is between steps 2 and 3. The last step will not work unless you enable sharding for the given database beforehand.

sh.enableSharding("<target database>")

Thanks for noticing the point @dinkec. We will add the point in case :slight_smile:
But as mentioned in the Lab Pre-requisites, we assume you have a sharded collection m103.products that means m103 has sharding enabled even if we drop the collection and re-import it.
