NAME
       lightning-recover -- Reinitialize Your Node for Recovery

SYNOPSIS
       recover hsmsecret

DESCRIPTION
       The  recover RPC	command	wipes your node	and restarts it	with the --re-
       cover option. This is only permitted if the node	is  unused:  no	 chan-
       nels, no	bitcoin	addresses issued (you can use check to see if recovery
       is possible).

       hsmsecret is either a codex32 secret starting with "cl1"	as returned by
       hsmtool getcodexsecret, or a raw	64 character hex string.

       NOTE: this command only currently works with the	sqlite3	database back-
       end.

         hsmsecret (string): Either a codex32 secret starting with cl1	as re-
	  turned by hsmtool getcodexsecret, or a raw 64	character hex string.

RETURN VALUE
       On success, an object is	returned, containing:

         result  (string)  (always  "Recovery	restart	 in  progress")	(added
	  v24.05)
