             Summary: Consumer doesn't get messages from some partitions after 
reassign
                 Key: KAFKA-3120
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-3120
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 0.9.0.0
         Environment: Linux
            Reporter: Jakub Neubauer
            Priority: Critical


I tested some scenario on one-node cluster with this setup:
* A topic with 5 partitions, 1 replica.
* One producer (new java client)
* 2 consumers were started (let's say A and B). Using the new java client. 2 
partitions to A, 3 partitions to B were assigned.

Then I stopped one of the consumers (cleanly). The partitions were re-assigned 
(The consumer got all 5 partitions in the 
"ConsumerRebalanceListener.onPartitionsAssigned" listener.

But as messages were produced, the living consumer received only messages of 
some partitions (magically those that belonged to the now-dead consumer).
The messages were not lost. After I restarted the second consumer, it got the 
messages that it previously didn't get. But without restarting, the messages 
were not consumed by it.

It is quite serious issue, since there is no sign of something being wrong. 
Everything seems to be working. So the administrator has no chance to get the 
idea that (only some) messages are not consumed on the "healthy" system.
