As you can see, I have tried to override the retention.bytes for each partition
to 10GB to be explicit. 96GB over 10 partitions which 6.4GB. So, I gave myself
more than enough buffer. Even then, I am left with no logs. Here's an example:
% ls -ltr /var/log/kafka/MyTopic-0total 4-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 14
Jul 17 15:05 leader-epoch-checkpoint-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 10485756 Jul 17
15:05 00000000000005484128.timeindex-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jul
17 15:05 00000000000005484128.log-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 10485760 Jul 17 15:05
00000000000005484128.index
I kept my eyes on the directory for each partition as the producer was
publishing data and I saw periodic .deleted files. Does it mean that Kafka was
deleting logs?
Any help would be highly appreciated.
