MongoDB Error 295: Invalid Heartbeat Config

Known Causes
4 known causesMisconfigured Replica Set Settings
The 'heartbeatIntervalMillis' or related replica set configuration parameters may be set to an invalid or unfeasible value.
Network Latency or Congestion
High network latency, packet loss, or congestion between replica set members can prevent heartbeats from arriving within the expected frequency.
System Clock Skew
Significant time differences between the system clocks of replica set members can cause heartbeats to appear out of sync.
Overloaded Server Resources
A replica set member experiencing high CPU, memory, or I/O load may be unable to process and send heartbeats promptly.
