Ewen Cheslack-Postava commented on KAFKA-559: --------------------------------------------- This is an updated version of the patch by [~tejas.patil]. I'm pretty sure I've addressed all the issues [~jjkoshy] brought up. > Garbage collect old consumer metadata entries > --------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-559 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-559 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: New Feature > Reporter: Jay Kreps > Assignee: Ewen Cheslack-Postava > Labels: newbie, project > Attachments: KAFKA-559.patch, KAFKA-559.v1.patch, KAFKA-559.v2.patch > > > Many use cases involve tranient consumers. These consumers create entries > under their consumer group in zk and maintain offsets there as well. There is > currently no way to delete these entries. It would be good to have a tool > that did something like > bin/delete-obsolete-consumer-groups.sh [--topic t1] --since [date] > --zookeeper [zk_connect] > This would scan through consumer group entries and delete any that had no > offset update since the given date. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
