Sönke Liebau commented on KAFKA-1021: ------------------------------------- Is this tool still necessary? From the wording in the issue above this sounds a little like this was before min.insync.isr and the unclean leader election configs.. > Write a tool to check replica lag for individual topic partitions > ----------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-1021 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1021 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: tools > Affects Versions: 0.8.0 > Reporter: Neha Narkhede > Assignee: Neha Narkhede > Priority: Major > > For highest consistency guarantees, we require all replicas to be in-sync > with the leader. This increases the possibility of picking an in-sync replica > as the next leader, during leader election. However, due to network/disk/CPU > bottleneck, replicas may fall out of ISR. One of the first things to check is > if the replica is making progress and how many messages behind it has fallen. > We need a simple tool that can take in one or more topics/partitions and find > the lag of the replicas. This tool is similar in usage to the > ConsumerOffsetChecker, but work differently since we do not checkpoint > replica offsets in zookeeper. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
