Hi, I have a Apache kafka cluster with 3 nodes(say 1,2,3) with replication factor of 3 and partitions as 3.
When my producer client, consumer client and the cluster are running, able to transfer messages from producer to consumer without any issues. Now I stopped leader node say node 1 from the cluster and now say node 2 is promoted as leader. Message flow from producer to consumer works fine without any issues. Now I started node 1 and stopped node 2, either node 1 or node 3 is promoted as leader. Now producer able to send messages but consumer not able to receive messages. I see consumer lag using kafka manager web console. Again if I start node 2, consumer able to receive messages. Please suggest how to overcome this issue and fix it. Thanks.
