A node-exhaustion-safe intrusion-tolerant distributed system is a system that assuredly does not suffer more than the assumed number of node failures. In a recent work, we showed that it is not possible to build any type of node-exhaustion-safe distributed f intrusion-tolerant system under the asynchronous model. Some years ago, an intuition about this problem motivated the research around proactive recovery, which made possible the appearance of asynchronous systems that allegedly can tolerate any number of faults over the lifetime of the system. In this paper, each of these works is analyzed in detail and is explained why they fail to achieve their goal. Afterwards, we summarize the four problems that may affect systems employing proactive recovery.
