LogScale's disaster recovery capabilities enable operators to create new clusters using replicated bucket storage data from another location, where internal metadata and segment files are continuously written. The recovery process involves starting a single instance with specific configuration settings to enable recovery and rewrite internal metadata from the replicated storage.

LogScale's disaster recovery abilities rely on the persisted data in bucket storage being replicated to another location. Internal metadata (the global database) and segment files are continuously written to bucket storage and replicating the object storage to the other location allows operators to create a new cluster using the replicated bucket as the source of data for the cluster. This process requires starting one instance with several configuration options set to enable the recovery and rewriting of internal metadata. See Start a new LogScale cluster based on another with buckets for more information.
