             Summary: automatic migration of log dirs to new locations
                 Key: KAFKA-1689
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1689
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: config, core
    Affects Versions: 0.8.1.1
            Reporter: Javier Alba
            Priority: Minor


There is no automated way in Kafka 0.8.1.1 to make a migration of log data if 
we want to reconfigure our cluster nodes to use several data directories where 
we have mounted new disks instead our original data directory.

For example, say we have our brokers configured with:

  log.dirs = /tmp/kafka-logs

And we added 3 new disks and now we want our brokers to use them as log.dirs:

  logs.dirs = /srv/data/1,/srv/data/2,/srv/data/3

It would be great to have an automated way of doing such a migration, of course 
without losing current data in the cluster.

It would be ideal to be able to do this migration without losing service.
