+.. dbcommand:: cloneCollectionAsCapped
+
+   The :dbcommand:`cloneCollectionAsCapped` command creates a new
+   :term:`capped collection` from an existing, non-capped collection
+   within the same database. The original non-capped collection
+   remains after the operation.
+
+   The command has the following syntax:
+
+   .. code-block:: javascript
+
+      { cloneCollectionAsCapped: <existing collection>, toCollection: <capped collection>, size: <capped size> }
+
+   The command copies an ``existing collection`` and creates a new
+   ``capped collection`` with a maximum size specified by the ``capped
+   size`` in bytes. The name of the new capped collection must be
+   distinct and cannot be the same as that of the original existing
+   collection. To replace the original non-capped collection with a
+   capped collection, use the :dbcommand:`convertToCapped` command.
+
+   During the cloning, the :dbcommand:`cloneCollectionAsCapped` command
+   exhibit the following behavior:
+
+   - The documents in the original collection will be traversed in
+     :term:`$natural order <natural order>` and loaded into a new
+     capped collection.
+
+   - If the ``capped size`` specified for the capped collection is
+     smaller than the size of the original uncapped collection, then
+     the documents will be aged out of the collection based on
+     insertion order(First In, First Out).
