             Summary: MirrorMaker 2 emits invalid topic partition metrics
                 Key: KAFKA-9175
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-9175
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: KafkaConnect
    Affects Versions: 2.4.0

While looking at MirrorMaker 2 metrics with [~ecomar], we noticed the topic 
partition metrics were invalid. 
!image-2019-11-12-17-42-45-773.png!

The topic spp.hello is not receiving any records but its metrics are constantly 
updating.

The issue is in MirrorMetrics.PartitionMetrics. In the constructor, Sensors are 
built using metrics.sensor() with a name that does not include the topic 
partition. metrics.sensor() does not always create a new Sensor but can return 
an existing Sensor if one exists for the specified name. So in practice, if a 
Task is handling many topic partitions, they all share the same Sensors!

This renders the topic partition metrics unusable and really prevents 
monitoring MirrorMaker 2.
