             Summary: Handle offset migration in the new Kafka Source
                 Key: FLUME-2983
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-2983
             Project: Flume
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: v1.7.0
            Reporter: Grant Henke
            Assignee: Grant Henke


Similar to FLUME-2972, Offsets tracking the position in Kafka consumers change 
from using zookeeper for offset storage to Kafka when moving from 0.8.x to 
0.9.x.
FLUME-2821 makes the client change in the Kafka Source but does not ensure 
existing offsets get migrated in order to continue consuming where it left off.
Flume should have some automated logic on startup to check if Kafka offsets 
exist, if not and migration is enabled (by default) then copy the offsets from 
Zookeeper and commit them to Kafka.

This change should also fix the backwards incompatibility caused by removing 
the zookeeperConnect property. The bootstrap can be looked up if 
zookeeperConnect is used.
