The node is ready to become partition owner when partition data is rebalanced and cache indexes are ready. For the message-based cluster rebalancing approach indexes are rebuilding simultaneously with cache data loading. For the file-based rebalancing approach, the index rebuild procedure must be run before the partition state is set to the OWNING state.
...
Each topology change event JOIN/LEFT/FAILED may or may not change cache affinity assignments of currently rebalacning caches. If assignments is not changed and the node is still needs partitions being rebalanced we can continue the current rebalance process (see for details IGNITE-7165).
The rebalance procedure will be stopped if the deactivation event occurs. The single partition will be lost and will be preloaded on the next cluster rebalancing.
A new connection must be established and the download process of partition file must be continued from the last successfully send cache partition chunk.
