------------------------------------

             Summary: Downgrades to 3.3.2 will fail from versions 3.6.0 and 
above
                 Key: KAFKA-18442
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-18442
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Jonah Hooper


Downgrading from 3.6.x and above to 3.3.x will fail with the following error:
{code:java}
 kafka.common.InconsistentBrokerMetadataException: BrokerMetadata is not 
consistent across log.dirs. This could happen if multiple brokers shared a log 
directory (log.dirs) or partial data was manually copied from another broker. 
Found:- /mnt/kafka/kafka-metadata-logs -> {node.id=1, 
directory.id=ItAoMTrsidYVfoRnX3gsAA, version=1, 
cluster.id=I2eXt9rvSnyhct8BYmW6-w}- /mnt/kafka/kafka-data-logs-2 -> {node.id=1, 
directory.id=MiQDnIX6WuYL0NdMaLOsRQ, version=1, 
cluster.id=I2eXt9rvSnyhct8BYmW6-w}- /mnt/kafka/kafka-data-logs-1 -> {node.id=1,

This is only broken in 3.3.2 version of Kafka 
[BrokerMetatadataCheckpoint.scala|https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/c9c03dd7ef9ff4edf2596e905cabececc72a9e9d/core/src/main/scala/kafka/server/BrokerMetadataCheckpoint.scala#L186].
 In 3.3.2 kafka loads information about metadata directories via 
{{metadata.properties}} files and expects that the properties are duplicated 
for all log directories. We crash with a fatal error if they are non-duplicate 
which at that time would mean that another instance of kafka was using the same 
log directories.

In [#14291|https://github.com/apache/kafka/pull/14291] we dropped the 
requirement that the {{metadata.properties}} files is duplicate in each 
directory since they will now contain a non-unique {{directory.id}} field for 
each dir. This has no effect on versions of kafka running {{kraft}} mode, >= 
3.4.x (they care only about uniqueness of node.id and cluster.id) but does 
affect 3.3.2 and lower (than 
[#9967|[https://github.com/apache/kafka/pull/9967])] since it expects every 
{{metadata.properties}} file to be the same.
