I am trying to restart our network using data left by previous collators. How do I apply that data to start a new ( or the same ) network without losing data? I am looking for a solution similar polkashot for kusama.

Boot with --base-dir <PREVIOUS COLLATOR DATA PATH> or -d <PREVIOUS COLLATOR DATA PATH>.
Aside from pointing your node to use the db dir of your previous collator keep in mind that you can also use export-state subcommand to generate a chainspec based on that db state, and from there you can generate genesis wasm and genesis state if needed.

The export-state produces a chain specs that do not have your orignal collator set. How to get my orignal collator set back, as export-state produces a raw chain specs and we can not add our collator in this raw chain specs as we do in plain chain specs.
