Product Area(s): KV, DR.
As seen in https://github.com/cockroachlabs/support/issues/3261, it would be good to exercise the following:
- Simulation of an "accidental drop" of a large table (in the example, operator error resulted in the drop of a ~120TiB table). Ideally this happens in a large, multi-store cluster.
- Restore of the table from a backup.
Having such an operation will allow us to further exercise restore. It will also give us a sense of "time-to-recovery".
This operation will also likely (initially) encounter similar issues to those encountered during scale testing, if run on large multi-store clusters. Notably #134960. The operator will therefore provide a nice before / after view of the improvements we plan to make in this area.
