Ryan Berdeen commented on KAFKA-1631:
-------------------------------------
The patch does look like an improvement to the {{TopicCommand}}, but doesn't
address the number of under-replicated partitions reported by the brokers. It
seems like there shouldn't be multiple definitions of "under-replicated
partition".
> ReplicationFactor and under-replicated partitions incorrect during

> We have a topic with a replication factor of 3. We monitor
> UnderReplicatedPartitions as recommended by the documentation.
> During a partition reassignment, partitions being reassigned are reported as
> under-replicated. Running a describe shows:
> {code}
> Topic:activity-wal-1 PartitionCount:15 ReplicationFactor:5
> Configs:
> Topic: activity-wal-1 Partition: 0 Leader: 14 Replicas:
> 14,13,12,11,15 Isr: 14,12,11,13
> Topic: activity-wal-1 Partition: 1 Leader: 14 Replicas:
> 15,14,11 Isr: 14,11
> Topic: activity-wal-1 Partition: 2 Leader: 11 Replicas:
> 11,15,12 Isr: 12,11,15
> ...
> {code}
> It looks like the displayed replication factor, 5, is simply the number of
> replicas listed for the first partition, which includes both brokers in the
> current list and those onto which the partition is being reassigned.
> Partition 0 is also included in the list when using the
> `--under-replicated-partitions` option, even though it is replicated to more
> partitions than the true replication factor.
> During a reassignment, the under-replicated partitions metric is not usable,
> meaning that actual under-replicated partitions can go unnoticed.
