This means that upon coordinator > failover, offset commits from any member of a group will be accepted, even if > that member is from an older generation. A better way of handling this case > would be to return an ILLEGAL_GENERATION error when the generation in the > commit request is greater than or equal to 0. Consumers that are not using > group management will always send a generation of -1, so their commits will > still be accepted as valid. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
