I’m constantly getting disabled right now with Log Messages that activeSessions is full of maxSessions (1 million).

In the end, we solved this by restarting MongoDB,
For cause analysis, the $listLocalSessions command determined the current status.

However, unlike other services keeping less than 100, this MongoDB had tens of thousands of localSessions as shown in the picture.

May I know the cause of this?
What is localSession?

I use MongoDB 6.0.10.
The localSessions of primary and secondary are similar.

dbmon user is mongodb exporter for prometheus user,
displayUser is dev user

I think most of those numbers were localSession which was more than 30 minutes old last time used.
But I understand that the Timeout Default value for localSession is 30 minutes, is it a bug?
