Not all partitions - any partition of a topic is kept in a separate dir. (hopefully not all on the same server) >This means, the capacity of required volume is to be determined by the retention size of the topic with largest data load. Yes but see above - determined by number of partitions and the retention size of the topic with largest data load. (so you can always use more partitions to spread the load) >I will try moving the data from full to less used volumes, though it seems an unclean workaround, not suitable in Prod. Agreed - but you should really monitor the disks for space - you should never run out of space like this in production. best svante 2015-03-21 20:58 GMT+01:00 Zakee <kzak...@netzero.net>: > > The shutdown is expected.
