Jason Gustafson created KAFKA-8875: -------------------------------------- Summary: CreateTopic API should check topic existence before replication factor Key: KAFKA-8875 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-8875 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Bug Reporter: Jason Gustafson
If you try to create a topic and the replication factor cannot be satisfied, Kafka will return `INVALID_REPLICATION_FACTOR`. If the topic already exists, we should probably return `TOPIC_ALREADY_EXISTS` instead. You won't see this problem if using TopicCommand because we check existence prior to creating the topic. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.2#803003)
