Hi,

I'm using kafka 0.8.2 & one of my kafka servers died (no way to recover the
data on the disks). There is a topic, with replication of 1, with one of
the partitions on the dead server. I thought a reassignment would move the
metadata for that partition to a new server without needing the data, but
the reassignment is stuck to in progress.

I ran:

$ /opt/kafka/kafka/bin/kafka-reassign-partitions.sh --zookeeper
myzookeeper.my.com --reassignment-json-file new_assignment.json --verify
Status of partition reassignment:
Reassignment of partition [topicX,1] is still in progress
This will never succeed since the dead server is never coming back.

In the new server's log, I saw:

Is there a way to force it to complete or abort the reassignment action?
