Error in workloop { MongoError: Unsupported OP_QUERY command: replSetGetStatus. The client driver may require an upgrade.

Running mongo-k8s-sidecar in AKS attempting to initialize 3 replica statefulset MongoDB. I'm getting this error:

Workaround: Using mongo:5.0.15 for the primary container image resolves the issue.

Suggestion: Not sure but it seems upgrading the client driver might be required.
