# Bi-directional recovery: Failback when clusterA comes back
1. You can simulate this by turning `cluster A` back on.
2. Data ingested to `cluster B` during `cluster A` 's downtime will be automatically replicated.
   - data streams on cluster A
  - 150 documents in `logs-generic-default-replicated_from_clusterb`
- 50 documents in `logs-generic-default`
- data streams on cluster B
  - 50 documents in `logs-generic-default-replicated_from_clustera`
- 150 documents in `logs-generic-default`
3. If you have Logstash running at this time, you will also observe traffic is sent to both clusters.
