If you have reclaim_instance_interval set then you can restore instances via an
admin api command. If not then you are not going to have much luck reclaiming
the insance becasue the drive will be deleted. If by some chance you have the
backing files still, then you should be able to fix the db and do a hard reboot
on the instance to get it to come back up. Fixing the db is mostly about
setting deleted=False but keep in mind that you will also have to manually
restore the vif and reassociate the fixed ip which hopefully hasn't been
associated to a new instance.
