      There is a problem with an initial sync. Several attempts have failed with the following error:
      CappedPositionLost: CollectionScan died due to position in capped collection being deleted

      The capped collections size on which the errors are occured: 30 - 100 GB
      On our workload the capped collections "capacity" (the time before each document is deleted) varies between 24 and 60 hours.

      Here are some more detailed info about the collections:

      Number of CappedPositionLost errors, collection name, capped size, capacity
      6 DB1.collection1 - 40G - 2.46week
      3 DB1.collection14 - 37G - min 56h
      3 DB1.collection2 - 30G - min 36h
      9 DB1.collection9 - 100G - min 24h

      The logs for the 7 failed attempts to perform the initial sync are attached.

      Currently there is only one alive instance is left in the replica set on our production system. Please help us to bring the replica up.
