Clark Haskins commented on KAFKA-1070:
--------------------------------------
We currently have node IDs in the 0-10000 range. I think some better logic for
identifying used node IDs is necessary rather than just starting from 1000.
> Auto-assign node id

> It would be nice to have Kafka brokers auto-assign node ids rather than
> having that be a configuration. Having a configuration is irritating because
> (1) you have to generate a custom config for each broker and (2) even though
> it is in configuration, changing the node id can cause all kinds of bad
> things to happen.
