Hi Simon,
My intention for this is to create a pre-prod test environment - so having
an exact replica of the data isn't an issue. Previously I have used the
riak-admin backup/restore, but the file has grown to about 70GB, and so
takes around a day to backup, copy and restore into a new cluster.

Hi David, Matt,
We've just discussed this and its a bit tricky. For 4 servers with N=3 it
is possible to stop 2 nodes, (say 3 and 4) and then send a "force-remove"
command to the remaining servers (1 and 2).
Then you could start (3 and 4), and send *them* a force-remove of (1 and 2).
This is ris
This is something I've been wondering about of late. It seems to me it
would be useful to at least be able to tell a single node to take a whole
copy of all the data and then leave the cluster.
You could then start a new cluster from that node. It would (possibly) save
time in backup and restores.
