Yes, the kafka-request log logs every request (in TRACE). It's mostly for debugging purpose. Other than that, there is no harm to turn it off. Thanks, Jun On Mon, Jul 22, 2013 at 7:59 PM, Calvin Lei wrote: > nah. We just changed it to INFO and will monitor the log. We have GBs of > logs when

You can try kafka-reassign-partitions now. You do have to specify the new replica assignment manually. We are improving that tool to make it more automatic. Thanks, Jun On Mon, Jul 22, 2013 at 10:40 AM, Jason Rosenberg wrote: > Is the kafka-reassign-partitions tool something I can experiment

nah. We just changed it to INFO and will monitor the log. We have GBs of logs when it was at trace level. the kafka-request log was going crazy. On Jul 22, 2013, at 10:54 PM, Jay Kreps wrote: > We run at info too except when debugging stuff. Are you saying that info is > too verbose? > > -Jay

The beta release comes with mostly trace level logging. Is this recommended? I notice our cluster produce way too many logs. I set all the level to info currently.

Here's a ruby cli that you can use to replace brokers...it shells out to the kafka-reassign-partitions.sh tool after figuring out broker lists from zk. Hope its useful. #!/usr/bin/env ruby require 'excon' require 'json' require 'zookeeper' def replace(arr, o, n) arr.map{|v| v == o ? n : v } e

Is the kafka-reassign-partitions tool something I can experiment with now (this will only be staging data, in the first go-round). How does it work? Do I manually have to specify each replica I want to move? This would be cumbersome, as I have on the order of 100's of topicsOr does the tool

A replica's data won't be automatically moved to another broker where there are failures. This is because we don't know if the failure is transient or permanent. The right tool to use is the kafka-reassign-partitions tool. It hasn't been thoroughly tested tough. We hope to harden it in the final 0.
