---------------------------------
Hi James,
The PR i submitted had enough issues I decided to pull it back and resubmit.
Expect a new PR tomorrow or Thursday.
> Document how to use kafka-reassign-partitions.sh to change log dirs for a

> KIP-113 introduced support for moving replicas between log directories. As
> part of it, support was added to kafka-reassign-partitions.sh so that users
> can move replicas between log directories. Specifically, when you call
> "kafka-reassign-partitions.sh --topics-to-move-json-file
> topics-to-move.json", you can specify a "log_dirs" key in the
> topics-to-move.json file, and kafka-reassign-partitions.sh will then move
> those replicas to those directories.
>
> However, when working on that KIP, we didn't update the docs on
> kafka.apache.org to describe how to use the new functionality. We should add
> documentation on that.
>
> I haven't used it before, but whoever works on this Jira can probably figure
> it out by experimentation with kafka-reassign-partitions.sh, or by reading
> KIP-113 page or the associated JIRAs.
