es version : 5.2.2

- create index : index-name and index some data

ordinary index

```auto
GET index-name/_stats/?level=shards

```

```auto
"commit": {
              "id": "jnPwdaydlNfju6jJXCUhxA==",
              "generation": 8,
              "user_data": {
                "translog_uuid": "WJH9_RACSDK6b-Rwd-jLDA",
                "sync_id": "AV91knYndKR8jYwDuHVh",
                "translog_generation": "1"
              },
              "num_docs": 757005
}

```

- then shrink the index to generator a new index: read\_index-name

```auto
POST index-name/_shrink/read_index-name
{
}

```

- index from shrink

```auto
GET read_index-name/_stats/?level=shards

```

```auto
"commit": {
              "id": "qx4BsoFpMBjxPQWbqeaLqQ==",
              "generation": 4,
              "user_data": {
                "translog_generation": "1",
                "translog_uuid": "_6EUUgehRky_wGjIvCqHkw"
              },
              "num_docs": 4526847
            }

```

- restart a node
- I got some log from es server

```auto

```

I tried some times. the index-name always recovery from local, and read\_index-name always recovery from remote.

Can I to avoid the shrinked index to recovery from remove？ Any advice will be great!

And how can I find a index that recovery from local or remote from CURL request , other than from es server TRACE log?
