== Recovery
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
`recovery` is a view of shard replication. It will show information
|
|
|
|
anytime data from at least one shard is copying to a different node.
|
|
|
|
It can also show up on cluster restarts. If your recovery process
|
|
|
|
seems stuck, try it to see if there's any movement.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As an example, let's enable replicas on a cluster which has two
|
|
|
|
indices, three shards each. Afterward we'll have twelve total shards,
|
|
|
|
but before those replica shards are `STARTED`, we'll take a snapshot
|
|
|
|
of the recovery:

We have six total shards in recovery (a replica for each primary), at
|
|
|
|
varying points of progress.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Let's restart the cluster and then lose a node. This output shows us
|
|
|
|
what was moving around shortly after the node left the cluster.

=== Why am I seeing recovery percentages greater than 100?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This can happen if a shard copy goes away and comes back while the
|
|
|
|
primary was indexing. The replica shard will catch up with the
|
|
|
|
primary by receiving any new segments created during its outage.
|
|
|
|
These new segments can contain data from segments it already has
|
|
|
|
because they're the result of merging that happened on the primary,
|
|
|
|
but now live in different, larger segments. After the new segments
|
|
|
|
are copied over the replica will delete unneeded segments, resulting
|
|
|
|
in a dataset that more closely matches the primary (or exactly,
|
|
|
|
assuming indexing isn't still happening).
