UYAR Farid commented on KAFKA-4107: ----------------------------------- There is also another issue I dont know if it's related. When I delete a connector and recreates it with the same name, the previously stored offset is retrieved. I also have to resort to increment the name of the connector. That's unintuitive and I think not intended. > Support offset reset capability in Kafka Connect > ------------------------------------------------ > > Key: KAFKA-4107 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-4107 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: KafkaConnect > Reporter: Jason Gustafson > Priority: Major > > It would be useful in some cases to be able to reset connector offsets. For > example, if a topic in Kafka corresponding to a source database is > accidentally deleted (or deleted because of corrupt data), an administrator > may want to reset offsets and reproduce the log from the beginning. It may > also be useful to have support for overriding offsets, but that seems like a > less likely use case. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
