JFFS2 recovery strategy

I'm using JFFS2 with Sibley device. During a file writing (for instance the copy of a file of 10KB), what happens when a single buffer program fails? It seams that JFFS2 tries to recovery the file. In which way does it work? I suppose that JFFS2 tries to write the remaining bytes on another flash block. Is it right? Please, could you summarize the JFFS2 recovery strategy?

Thanks in advance for your support.
Best regards,
Davide
