Aditya Auradkar commented on KAFKA-1229: ---------------------------------------- Hey [~vamsi360], We recently did a pretty detailed discussion on this: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/KIP-21+-+Dynamic+Configuration At that time, we decided not to support reloading broker config via SIGHUP. Aditya > Reload broker config without a restart > -------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-1229 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1229 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Wish > Components: config > Affects Versions: 0.8.0 > Reporter: Carlo Cabanilla > Priority: Minor > > In order to minimize client disruption, ideally you'd be able to reload > broker config without having to restart the server. On *nix system the > convention is to have the process reread its configuration if it receives a > SIGHUP signal. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
