有些時候有於硬體資源有限，所以我們不得不進行一些回收工作，下面我們就要將剛剛啟用的Shard Server 回收，系統首先會將在這個即將被移除的Shard Server 上的資料先平均分配到其它的Shard Server 上，然後最終在將這個Shard Server 踢下線, 我們需要不停的呼叫db.runCommand({"removeshard" :"localhost:20002"});來觀察這個移除操作進行到哪裡了：

> use admin
switched to db admin
> db.runCommand({"removeshard" : "localhost:20002"});
{
"msg" : "draining started successfully",
"state" : "started",
"shard" : "shard0002",
"ok" : 1
}
> db.runCommand({"removeshard" : "localhost:20002"});
{
"msg" : "draining ongoing",
"state" : "ongoing",
"remaining" : {
"chunks" : NumberLong(44),
"dbs" : NumberLong(0)
},
"ok" : 1
}
……
> db.runCommand({"removeshard" : "localhost:20002"});
{
"msg" : "draining ongoing",
"state" : "ongoing",
"remaining" : {
"chunks" : NumberLong(1),
"dbs" : NumberLong(0)
},
"ok" : 1
}
> db.runCommand({"removeshard" : "localhost:20002"});
{
"msg" : "removeshard completed successfully",
"state" : "completed",
"shard" : "shard0002",
"ok" : 1
}
> db.runCommand({"removeshard" : "localhost:20002"});
{
"assertion" : "can't find shard for: localhost:20002",
"assertionCode" : 13129,
"errmsg" : "db assertion failure",
"ok" : 0
}
