Mohamed Ayman:
The initial cluster token , cluster name and initial-advertise-peer-urls are optional, especially when restoring back to the same cluster with a single master.
Mohamed Ayman:
This is the difference between the two methods
Mohamed Ayman:
You can try it out in the backup and lab as well.
Mohamed Ayman:
Note that using these options will also work.
