GitHub user relief-melone edited a discussion: Should Kafka Source Connector 
itsself after unrecoverable error?

This is concerning the pulsar-io/kafka-source. Before I create an issue 
regarding this topic I would like to have some insight if the current behaviour 
is actually wrong or if there are already config values to adress this.

We recently had an issue that caused the consumer in a kafka source connector 
to get kicked out of kafkas consumer group. The connector is running as a pod 
inside of kubernetes. The consumer is unrecoverable at that point so the source 
connector should have two options

- create a new consumer and connect
- end the process which would in turn result in another pod being spun up if 
this is a scenario where the connector is deployed in kubernetes

However I feel like the connector just sitting there not consuming messages 
from kafka anymore is the wrong behaviour. Am I missing a config value? Would 
be happy to get your opinion on that and gladly create an issue as well if 
necessary
