Hi
To whom it's important to;
I have some questions in Influxdb v 1.8 and I hope you guys help me a little, and I don't know if these are bugs or not.
First question:
how to stop influxd process?
In the documentation in Compact a series file offline first step is stopping influxd process.
Second question:
Is there any ways to restore compact data to normal type?
if the answer is yes, HOW?
Third question:
How does compacting work for decreasing file size on disk when we remove the normal data from the autogen directory ?
Fourth question:
Is there a way for restoring deleted compacted files?
If the answer is yes, HOW?
Thank you all for help.
I have searched for a long time like a month, but I steel couldn't find the answers.

Research direction
Start with the linked InfluxDB 1.8 backup and restore documentation and its section on offline series-file compaction. Determine how stopping influxd, restoring compacted data, reclaiming space, and recovering deleted compacted files are documented; done means the relevant documentation clearly answers these four questions or states the supported limitations.
