I get this issue no once in the last two years on different HDD’s. Reindexing works fine, but what if I want to start reindexing not from 0 but from special bloks/chainstate files? For example, now I have an error:

Fatal LevelDB error: 1 missing files 069071.ldb

069071.ldb is one from the last files in chainstate. How do I start reindexing starting from a specific file? Or LevelDB organized differently internally and it only makes sense to rebuild from scratch?

If the missing file is for the chainstate and not the block index, you can do -reindex-chainstate instead of -reindex to skip part of the work. It does start from block 0 because the only way to reconstruct a potentially corrupted state is to re-apply all blocks, starting from genesis.
