Hi , I am reading the design doc for Kafka. But I can not find the algorithm which illustrates such scenario. When a new broker is registered in zookeeper, how do all the brokers negotiates with all the others? How does a new broker decide which partitions should be stored ?
By the way, I find num.partitions in server configure, but I can not find any parameter defining the topics of this broker. Could you tell me how to configure brokers in the following example. For example, I want to set "broker1" to store "topic1" and "topic2", each topic has 3 partitions? I think setting topic.partition.count.map as "topic1:3, topic2:3" should works. Is there any simpler configuration? Thanks. -- Guodong Wang（王国栋） Email:wangg...@gmail.com
