Hello all! I would like to start a discussion on KIP-928: Making Kafka resilient to log directories becoming full which can be found at https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-928%3A+Making+Kafka+resilient+to+log+directories+becoming+full .
In summary, I frequently run into problems where Kafka becomes unresponsive when the disks backing its log directories become full. Such unresponsiveness generally requires intervention outside of Kafka. I have found it to be significantly nicer of an experience when Kafka maintains control plane operations and allows you to free up space. I am interested in your thoughts and any suggestions for improving the proposal! Best, Christo
