Bruno Cadonna updated KAFKA-18495:
----------------------------------
Fix Version/s: 5.0.0
> Remove Invalid 'numberOfOpenFiles' Metric from RocksDB State Store
> -------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-18495
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-18495
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: streams
> Reporter: Swikar Patel
> Assignee: Swikar Patel
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 5.0.0
>
>
> The `numberOfOpenFiles` metric in the Kafka Streams RocksDB state store
> implementation is currently invalid and should be removed.
> This metric was intended to report the approximate number of open files in
> the RocksDB instance. It was previously calculated using the RocksDB internal
> metric `NO_FILE_CLOSES`, which was removed in RocksDB version 9.7.3. Due to
> this change, the `numberOfOpenFiles` metric no longer provides accurate
> information. The current workaround is to have it always return -1, which is
> misleading.
> The `numberOfOpenFiles` metric is: Invalid It does not reflect the actual
> number of open files in RocksDB. This misleading and returning -1 can confuse
> users and monitoring systems and unnecessary it provides no useful
> information in its current state.
> h4. Proposed Solution
> This Jira issue is to implement the changes proposed in [KIP-1125: Remove
> Invalid 'numberOfOpenFiles' Metric from RocksDB State
> Store|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-1125%3A+Remove+Invalid+%27numberOfOpenFiles%27+Metric+from+RocksDB+State+Store].
> The solution is to completely remove the `opennumberfiles` metric, including:
> * Removing the related code in `RocksDBMetricsRecorder`
> (`numberOfOpenFilesSensor`, recording logic).
> * Removing the `numberOfOpenFilesSensor` method in `RocksDBMetrics`
> * Updating the Kafka Streams documentation to reflect the metric's removal.
