Joel Koshy commented on KAFKA-103:
----------------------------------
At least per kafka-103-patch.v1 it is not totally ignored. So if the whitelist
config contains: SomeTopic:1 then SomeTopic will not get mirrored because it
will fail the isTopicAllowed filter in KafkaServerStartable. i.e., no topics
will get mirrored.
> Make whitelist/blacklist mirror configs more consistent

> The blacklist config for kafka mirrors is a comma separated list of topics.
> However, the whitelist config is a comma-separated list of
> "topics:numthreads" pairs, which allows for a multi-threaded consumer in the
> mirror. It will be good to keep the two configs consistent in format. So, we
> can make the whitelist config a comma-separated list of topics and provide a
> config (say, kafka.mirror.consumer.threads) that will specify the number of
> threads to use for all topics in the whitelist (if present).
