VinayKumar created KAFKA-8916: --------------------------------- Summary: Unreliable kafka-reassign-partitions.sh affecting performance Key: KAFKA-8916 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-8916 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Task Components: admin, config Affects Versions: 2.1.1 Environment: CentOS 7 Reporter: VinayKumar
Currently I have 3 node kafka cluster, and I want to add 2 more nodes to make it 5 node cluster. *After adding the nodes to cluster, I need all the topic partitions to be evenly distributed across all the 5 nodes. **In the past, when I ran kafka-reassign-partitions.sh & kafka-preferred-replica-election.sh, it ran for very long time, hung & made the cluster unstable. So I'm afraid to use this method. Can you please suggest the best & foolproof way to assign partitions among all the cluster nodes. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.2#803003)
