== 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).
