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 finished before the partition state is set to the OWNING state. 

Failover and Recovery

Apache Ignite doesn't provide any recovery guarantees for the partitions with the MOVING state. The cache partitions will be fully loaded when the next rebalance procedure occurs.

FAIL\LEFT during rebalancing

The node which is beeing rebalancing left the cluster. For such nodes WAL is always disabled (all partitions have MOVING state due to this node is new for the cluster and has no cache data). 
Since WAL is disabled we can guarantee that all operations with loaded partition files are safe to be done (renaming partition files, applying async updates) due to a cache directory will be fully dropped on recovery.

Topology change

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).
