Jun Rao updated KAFKA-2214:
---------------------------
Reviewer: Neha Narkhede
> kafka-reassign-partitions.sh --verify should return non-zero exit codes when
> reassignment is not completed yet

> Key: KAFKA-2214
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2214
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: admin
> Affects Versions: 0.8.1.1, 0.8.2.0
> Reporter: Michael Noll
> Assignee: Manikumar Reddy
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: KAFKA-2214.patch

>
> h4. Background
> The admin script {{kafka-reassign-partitions.sh}} should integrate better
> with automation tools such as Ansible, which rely on scripts adhering to Unix
> best practices such as appropriate exit codes on success/failure.
> h4. Current behavior (incorrect)
> When reassignments are still in progress {{kafka-reassign-partitions.sh}}
> prints {{ERROR}} messages but returns an exit code of zero, which indicates
> success. This behavior makes it a bit cumbersome to integrate the script
> into automation tools such as Ansible.
> {code}
> $ kafka-reassign-partitions.sh --zookeeper zookeeper1:2181
> --reassignment-json-file partitions-to-move.json --verify
> Status of partition reassignment:
> ERROR: Assigned replicas (316,324,311) don't match the list of replicas for
> reassignment (316,324) for partition [mytopic,2]
> Reassignment of partition [mytopic,0] completed successfully
> Reassignment of partition [myothertopic,1] completed successfully
> Reassignment of partition [myothertopic,3] completed successfully
> ...
> $ echo $?
> 0
> # But preferably the exit code in the presence of ERRORs should be, say, 1.
> {code}
> h3. How to improve
> I'd suggest that, using the above as the running example, if there are any
> {{ERROR}} entries in the output (i.e. if there are any assignments remaining
> that don't match the desired assignments), then the
> {{kafka-reassign-partitions.sh}} should return a non-zero exit code.
> h3. Notes
> In Kafka 0.8.2 the output is a bit different: The ERROR messages are now
> phrased differently.
> Before:
> {code}
> ERROR: Assigned replicas (316,324,311) don't match the list of replicas for
> reassignment (316,324) for partition [mytopic,2]
> {code}
> Now:
> {code}
> Reassignment of partition [mytopic,2] is still in progress
> {code}
