You cannot write to capped collections. Capped collections are fixed-size collections that support high-throughput operations that insert and retrieve documents based on insertion order.
You cannot use read concern "snapshot" when reading from a capped collection. A snapshot is a complete copy of the data in a mongod instance at a specific point in time. You can retrieve snapshot metadata for the whole cluster or replica set, or for a single config server in a cluster.
You cannot read/write to collections in the config, admin, or local databases.
You cannot write to system.* collections.
Transactions have a lifetime limit as specified by transactionLifetimeLimitSeconds . The default is 60 seconds.
