But once activated I don't understand the role of the node_pool. When we  want to add fragments (add_frag) we have to specify the nodes (or the distribution) to use, and we can add fragment on a node which is not in the node_pool, same thing for fragment replicas. Someone could say me  when  the node_pool is used ?
