Re: Got conflicted ephemeral node exception for several hours
I am on Kafka 0.8.2.1 (Java 8) and have happened to run into this same issue where the KafkaServer (broker) goes into a indefinite while loop writing out this message: [2015-08-04 15:45:12,350] INFO conflict in /brokers/ids/0 data: {jmx_port:-1,timestamp:1438661432074,host:foo-bar,version:1,port:9092} stored data: {jmx_port:-1,timestamp:1438661429589,host:foo-bar,version:1,port:9092} (kafka.utils.ZkUtils$) [2015-08-04 15:45:12,352] INFO I wrote this conflicted ephemeral node [{jmx_port:-1,timestamp:1438661432074,host:foo-bar,version:1,port:9092}] at /brokers/ids/0 a while back in a different session, hence I will backoff for this node to be deleted by Zookeeper and retry (kafka.utils.ZkUtils$) These above 2 lines have been repeating continuously every few seconds for the past 20 odd hours on this broker and this broker has been rendered useless and is contributing to high CPU usage. As a result the consumers have gone into a state where they no longer consume the messages. Furthermore, this continuous looping has put Kafka process on top of the CPU usage. I understand that bouncing the consumer is an option and probably will fix this, but in our real production environments, we won't be able to bounce the consumers. I currently have access to logs (some of which has been pasted here). Is there any chance these logs help in narrowing down the issue and fixing the root cause. Can we also please add a retry max limit kind of thing in this Zookeeper node creation logic instead of going into a indefinite while loop? I have maintained the original timestamps in the logs so as to help narrow down the issue. The 1438661432074 (milli second) in the log translates to Aug 03 2015 21:10:32 (PDT) and 1438661429589 translates to Aug 03 2015 21:10:30 (PDT). I have included that part of the log snippet from the server.log of the broker (10.95.100.31).

Re: Got conflicted ephemeral node exception for several hours
Restart the consumers does fix the issue. But since the zk retry is wrapped in an infinite loop it doesn't give a chance to consumer to respond it until some one notices and restarts. Why I suggest to have a maximum retry policy is if max retry is reached it can invoke a customer handler which I can then inject a restart call so that it can remedy itself without people's attention.

Re: Got conflicted ephemeral node exception for several hours
Finding out root cause is definitely something we should do and I hope the new Java consumer API will not have such issues anymore. Here are my observation of the issue: the zk retry was caused by session timeout. In theory the ephemeral node should be removed after the session is terminated by zk but in fact the node still presented after the session was gone. I saw lots of slow fsync warning in zk log like below but I am not sure if the warning has anything to do with the error I encountered. 2015-07-12 22:01:21,195 [myid:2] - WARN [SyncThread:2:FileTxnLog@334] - fsync-ing the write ahead log in SyncThread:2 took 1023ms which will adversely effect operation latency. See the ZooKeeper troubleshooting guide I know in Linkedin ZK is installed on SSD does it help with this?

I know that conflicted ephemeral node warning is to handle a zookeeper bug that session expiration and ephemeral node deletion are not done atomically but as indicated from zookeeper log the zookeeper never got a chance to delete the ephemeral node which made me think that the session was not expired at that time. And for some reason zookeeper fired session expire event which subsequently invoked ZKSessionExpireListener. I was just wondering if anyone have ever encountered similar issue before and what I can do at zookeeper side to prevent this? Another problem is that createEphemeralPathExpectConflictHandleZKBug call is wrapped in a while(true) loop which runs forever until the ephemeral node is created. Would it be better that we can employ an exponential retry policy with a max number of retries so that it has a chance to re-throw the exception back to caller and let caller handle it in situation
Re: Got conflicted ephemeral node exception for several hours
Bump the thread. Any help would be appreciated.
