Neha Narkhede commented on KAFKA-1678: -------------------------------------- There are a few more usability issues with the reassignment tool. For example, it allows the user to start reassignment for a topic that doesn't exist and also reassign to brokers that don't exist. I think it is important to fix some usability issues with this tool before adding more options to it. > add new options for reassign partition to better manager dead brokers > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-1678 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1678 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Joe Stein > Assignee: Gwen Shapira > Labels: operations > Fix For: 0.8.3 > > > this is in two forms > --replace-replica > which is from broker.id to broker.id > and > --remove-replica > which is just a single broker.id -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
