I ended up getting guidance from Anshum on this and we did indeed use the delete-replica api to delete all but one of the replicas, and bouncing the last replica to let it lead. I will let anshum share a post on the details of how to recover leaderless shards with all replicas inactive in state. > On Mar 14, 2019, at 8:01 PM, Aroop Ganguly <aroopgang...@icloud.com> wrote: > > Thanks Shalin, Shawn. > > I ended up getting guidance from Anshum on this and we did indeed use the > delete-replica api to delete all but one of the replicas, and bouncing the > last replica to let it lead. > > I will let anshum share a post on the details of how to recover leader shards.
