Ashish K Singh commented on KAFKA-3469: --------------------------------------- One option to avoid this is to use a config like `zookeeper.set.acl` for tools as well. [~fpj] what are your thoughts? > kafka-topics lock down znodes with user principal when zk security is enabled. > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: KAFKA-3469 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-3469 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Ashish K Singh > Assignee: Ashish K Singh > > In envs where ZK is kerberized, if a user, other than user running kafka > processes, creates a topic, ZkUtils will lock down corresponding znodes for > the user. Kafka will not be able to modify those znodes and that leaves the > topic unusable. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
