> If the leader changes for a partition, and a producer is sending messages
> with ack=0, then messages will be lost, since the producer has no active way
> of knowing that the leader has changed, until it's next metadata refresh
> update.
> The broker receiving the message, which is no longer the leader, logs a
> message like this:
> Produce request with correlation id 7136261 from client on partition
> [mytopic,0] failed due to Leader not local for partition [mytopic,0] on
> broker 508818741
> This is exacerbated by the controlled shutdown mechanism, which forces an
> immediate leader change.
> A possible solution to this would be for a broker which receives a message,
> for a topic that it is no longer the leader for (and if the ack level is 0),
> then the broker could just silently forward the message over to the current
> leader.
