merlimat commented on issue #3555: Allow to automatically assign TCP ports when starting a broker URL: https://github.com/apache/pulsar/pull/3555#issuecomment-546766067 > my point is to prevent mistakes like what we did in bookkeeper. 0 is only useful in tests, but it is actually harmful in production. we should provide a flag to prevent mistakes. I think it's much more misleading to require a separate flag. Every server software out there will work if you put port 0 without any additional configuration. > 0 is only useful in tests, but it is actually harmful in production. we should provide a flag to prevent mistakes. You would have to put 0 directly in the config file. I don't see what can be unexpected or harmful. Having port 0 to dynamically allocate a port is not our made up convention, it's the common behavior for unix.
