In some cases, nodes hold a reference to a block but do not actually have the block

## Understanding unexpected layout calculations

When adding, removing or modifying nodes in a cluster layout, sometimes

unexpected assigntations of partitions to node can occur. These assignations

You can quickly know what type of update you will have to operate by looking at the version identifier:
|

when we require our users to do a major upgrade, we will always bump the first nonzero component of the version identifier

(e.g. from v0.7.2 to v0.8.0).

Conversely, for versions that only require a minor upgrade, the first nonzero component will always stay the same (e.g. from v0.8.0 to v0.8.1).
