Chen He commented on KAFKA-1689: -------------------------------- Just a newbie to the Kafka community, maybe this one is a toy that I can play with. > automatic migration of log dirs to new locations > ------------------------------------------------ > > Key: KAFKA-1689 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1689 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: config, core > Affects Versions: 0.8.1.1 > Reporter: Javier Alba > Priority: Minor > Labels: newbie++ > > There is no automated way in Kafka 0.8.1.1 to make a migration of log data if > we want to reconfigure our cluster nodes to use several data directories > where we have mounted new disks instead our original data directory. > For example, say we have our brokers configured with: > log.dirs = /tmp/kafka-logs > And we added 3 new disks and now we want our brokers to use them as log.dirs: > logs.dirs = /srv/data/1,/srv/data/2,/srv/data/3 > It would be great to have an automated way of doing such a migration, of > course without losing current data in the cluster. > It would be ideal to be able to do this migration without losing service. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
