LogInsight - importing logs from NFS archive

Hi Folks, I have log files archived to an archive NFS share, I need to retrieve log files from a specific date.

I've spun up a new LogInsight appliance, do I need to enable archiving and add the nfs share to the new LI appliance first?

Then once connected to it via ssh, can I retrieve a specified subset of logs from one date? I don't need to retrieve everything from the archive. If I do I will need a huge amount of storage on the temporary appliance.

(/usr/lib/loginsight/application/bin/loginsight repository import Path-To-Archived-Log-Data-Folder.)

If this is possible, does that recovered data need to be "re-archived" ?

thanks
