Undo convertToCapped to a collection

Question

In MongoDB you can convert a collection into a capped collection with the command convertToCapped, but is there a way to revert this change so a capped collection goes back to normal?

Answer 1

It's seems there is only one way to convert from capped collection to normal - just simple copy objects to normal collection and remove original capped collection.

db.createCollection("norm_coll");
var cur = db.cap_col.find()
while (cur.hasNext()) {obj = cur.next(); db.norm_coll.insert(obj);}
