Also > modified other settings as given below. > log.dirs=/tmp/kafka-logs > log.retention.hours=1 > log.retention.bytes=157286400 > log.segment.bytes=1073741824 > log.retention.check.interval.ms=300000 > log.cleaner.enable=true > log.cleanup.policy=delete > After checking few days, Size of the Kafka log folder too huge as 13.2 GB. We > have seen that Topic Offset getting updated and ignores the Old data but Log > File doesnt reduce and has all the Old Data and become too huge. Could you > help us to find out why Kafka is not deleting the logs(Physically). Do we > need to change any configuration ? -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
