The other way a shutdown is triggered is by {{SIGTERM}} or some > other signal. > We would like to distinguish between shutdown due to internal errors and > external signals. This helps when debugging. Particularly, a natural question > when a broker shuts down unexpectedly is: "did the deployment system send > the signal or is there some un logged fatal error in the broker"? > Today, we rely on callers of {{Exit}} to log the error before making the > call. However, this won't always have 100% coverage. It would be good to add > a log message in {{Exit}} to record that an exit method was invoked > explicitly. > We could also add a signal handler to log when {{SIGTERM}}, {{SIGKILL}} etc. > are received. > This would make operating Kafka a bit easier. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
