> To mitigate the 3.3 issue, we could add a flag to the `KafkaService` class to indicate whether different log directories have been used. During node restarts, this flag can be checked when generating properties. > > @TaiJuWu what are your thoughts? You have identified the root cause, so it would be excellent if you could complete this PR 😃 After discussion offline with @chia7712 , the main question becomes should we limit the upgrade path to single folder in our system test or we want to remove this version directly? The issue about multiple folder downgrade is a known issue (https://github.com/apache/kafka/pull/13130) and we won't release v3.3 again. The former means we still support limited upgrade and the latter means we don't give downgrade promission about v3.3. No matter what we should document it. cc @ijuma @mumrah @cmccabe -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
