This PR clarifies the documentation about TTL-expired document restoration behavior in both periodic and continuous backup modes.

Changes Made:

  • Periodic backup documentation: Updated language to clarify that TTL-expired documents are not restored by default, however the behavior can be enforced explicitly
  • Continuous backup documentation: Updated with consistent language for TTL restore behavior
  • Ensures both backup modes have aligned and clear documentation about TTL restoration options

This provides clearer guidance to users about TTL restoration behavior and helps users understand they can explicitly request TTL-expired document restoration when needed.

- Updated periodic backup documentation to clarify that TTL-expired documents are not restored by default but behavior can be enforced explicitly
- Updated continuous backup documentation with consistent language for restore behavior
- Ensures both backup modes have aligned documentation about restoration options

  • The statement claims 'the behavior can be enforced explicitly' but there is no documentation in the codebase explaining how to explicitly enforce TTL-expired document restoration. This could confuse users who want to restore TTL-expired documents. Either add documentation explaining how to enforce this behavior, link to relevant documentation, or remove the claim if this feature doesn't exist or isn't documented.
- Documents that were deleted because of expired TTL are not restored by default, however the behavior can be enforced explicitly.

- Stored procedures, triggers, user-defined functions (UDF).
- Role-based access control assignments. These need to be reassigned.
- Documents that were deleted because of expired TTL.
- Documents that were deleted because of expired TTL are not restored by default, however the behavior can be enforced explicitly.
