MongoDB Error 226: Atomicity Failure Detected
Description
This error indicates that an atomic operation, such as a multi-document transaction, failed to complete successfully, meaning all its constituent operations either committed or rolled back together. It typically occurs when a transaction cannot maintain its ACID properties due to conflicts or environmental issues.
Error Message
Atomicity Failure
Known Causes
4 known causesConcurrent Transaction Conflicts
Multiple concurrent transactions attempting to modify the same documents can lead to write conflicts, preventing one or more transactions from committing atomically.
Network Instability or Timeout
Intermittent network connectivity issues or exceeding transaction timeout limits during a multi-document transaction can prevent the successful propagation and commitment of all operations.
Replica Set Failover During Transaction
A primary step-down or failover event in a replica set while a transaction is in progress can interrupt the transaction, leading to an atomicity failure.
Transaction Duration Exceeded
Transactions that run for an excessively long period might exceed their configured timeout, causing them to abort and report an atomicity failure.
