             Summary: Raise minimum MetadataVersion for ZK migration to 3.6
                 Key: KAFKA-17457
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-17457
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: controller, migration
            Reporter: David Arthur
             Fix For: 3.6.3, 3.7.2, 3.8.0


In the 3.6.0 release notes, we announced that ZK migrations were production 
ready.

> The 3.6.0 release marked the first production ready release for the migration 
> of Kafka clusters from a ZooKeeper metadata system to a KRaft metadata 
> system. Users wanting to perform this migration are advised to first upgrade 
> to 3.6.2 or 3.7.1 to receive important bug fixes.

Part of the reasoning behind this announcement was that the migration was 
feature complete at this point (migration transactions and migration of 
delegation tokens were included in 3.6). 

If users are on a software version of 3.6 or higher, we should not let them 
perform the migration at an older MetadataVersion. Otherwise, the migration 
will be done without the use of metadata transactions, which is not safe.
