      Issue Status as of Apr 29, 2015

      ISSUE SUMMARY
      On Windows, and when MongoDB is run as a service, if MongoDB takes more than 60 seconds to stop while responding to a service stop request, Windows will forcibly terminate the process, leading to a possibly unclean termination. This change will allow MongoDB to take more than 60 seconds for a graceful stop.

      WORKAROUNDS
      Upgrade to 3.0.3.

      AFFECTED VERSIONS
      Versions of MongoDB before 3.0.3.

      FIX VERSION
      The fix is included in the 3.0.3 production release.

      • mongod received SERVICE_CONTROL_STOP request
      • it takes a while to shut down (maybe doing a lengthy checkpoint?)
      • Windows gets impatient after 60 seconds and abruptly terminates mongod
      • recovery fails on subsequent startup

      Recovery should succeed (SERVER-17818 tracks that issue) but it would seem desirable to avoid the abrupt termination as well. I believe there is a way to tell Windows that you got the message and are still in the process of shutting down.
