previous etcd-mesos cluster got into unrecoverable state
operator performed manual backup of etcd server
Currently, there's no way to manually seed a new cluster except by manually traversing and duplicating keys in an etcd server. We need to support an operator supplying a restore argument that contains a compressed etcd storage directory which will be used to initialize a new cluster.
an operator can manually reseed by hitting the http://:/reseed endpoint on a node, and if it's healthy kill the others. this is done automatically in https://github.com/mesosphere/etcd-mesos/pull/23
