Hi Developers, I have been searching for a way to restore a single database. I have not got much luck searching in the docs and hoping someone could give me input, perhaps best practice on backup/restore on couchdb.
Schenario: We have 3 servers in cluster and shards. One database is deleted and we have a volume snapshot before it was deleted. My understading, I should be able to replace _db.couch file and replaceing individual shard files for all 3 servers. This does work to a degree, after replacing the _db.couch and shards files, I was able to list the restored database (using _all_dbs) and view the restored documents (using <dbname>/_all_docs). However, after couchdb restart, it went back to the original list with the restored database missing, eventhough the shard files still around.
