In a forced replacement scenario (after completely losing a node), the replacement node would first calculate its own set of AAE trees, which would essentially be an empty set. Subsequent AAE exchanges with other nodes will detect the differences and cause missing KV objects to be repaired. For more information about AAE and partition repairs, please see the documentation [0][1].
