Changing Index Names or Indexing to DB_Name+<CustomString>

[thejeff77]

The problem is, I can't change the index that mongoconnector maps to... at least I can't figure it out.

Is it possible to change or customize the index name that mongoconnector sends data to?

Say all data is in the "bigdata" database in mongo. Can I change it to offload data into "bigdata-Jan2018" index?

Thanks for any help and/or information!

Yes you can change mapping names in mongo-connector config:
