Sönke Liebau commented on KAFKA-6746: ------------------------------------- I've seen this work in multiple Kafka deployments, and Cloudera Manager also exposes a setting for this in their Kafka parcel. I agree that it is probably just a documentation oversight. It is quite hard to find anything on this in the Zookeeper docs as well, only thing I came across is [this footnote-like mention|https://zookeeper.apache.org/doc/r3.3.2/zookeeperProgrammers.html#ch_zkSessions]. > Allow ZK Znode configurable for Kafka broker > --------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-6746 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-6746 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Biju Nair > Priority: Major > > By allowing users to specify the {{Znode}} to be used along with the {{ZK > Quorum}}, users will be able to reuse a {{ZK}} cluster for many {{Kafka}} > clusters. This will help in reducing the {{ZK}} cluster footprint especially > in non production environment. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
