Hi Guozhang, Can you please re-review KAFKA 1778 design. Just to provide background for this ticket. This was a sub-ticket of kafka admin commands KIP-4. The goal of this was to avoid cascading controller moves maybe during rolling broker bounce.
The approaches discussed were as follows: a) Use a preferred controller admin command which can be used to dynamically indicate a preferred controller. b) Use configuration to set a whitelist or blacklist of brokers which are eligible to become a controller. Can we have consensus on how we want to resolve this issue. -Abhishek On Sun, May 17, 2015 at 10:55 PM, Abhishek Nigam <ani...@linkedin.com> wrote: > Hi, > For pinning the controller to a broker I have proposed a design.
