# Reattaching Replication Streams to Protected Paths

If a replication stream becomes detached from a protected path, run the [protectedpath reattach-stream](/docs-5-3/docs/en/protectedpath-reattach-stream) command to reattach it to the protected path. This could happen if a peer loses connection with another peer while performing failover.

For example:

```plaintext
vcli: admin> protectedpath reattach-stream --id 41 --stream-id 46
```
