Posted a KIP for --re-balance for partition assignment in reassignment tool.
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-6+-+New+reassignment+partition+logic+for+re-balancing JIRA https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1792 While going through the KIP I thought of one thing from the JIRA that we should change. We should preserve --generate to be existing functionality for the next release it is in. If folks want to use --re-balance then great, it just won't break any upgrade paths, yet. /******************************************* Joe Stein Founder, Principal Consultant Big Data Open Source Security LLC http://www.stealth.ly Twitter: @allthingshadoop <http://www.twitter.com/allthingshadoop> ********************************************/
