Thanks for the suggestions! I tried the following:
I removed
createOnError = true
And reran the same process to reproduce. Double checked that checkpoint is
loading:
15/08/26 10:10:40 INFO
DirectKafkaInputDStream$DirectKafkaInputDStreamCheckpointData: Restoring
KafkaRDD for time 1440608825000 ms [(install-json,5,825898270,825898528),

(install-json,0,1295759888,1295760378),
(install-json,2,824443526,824444409), (install-json,3,
811222580,811222874)]

DirectKafkaInputDStream$DirectKafkaInputDStreamCheckpointData: Restoring
KafkaRDD for time 1440608830000 ms [(install-json,5,825898528,825898791),

(install-json,0,1295760378,1295760809),
(install-json,2,824444409,824445510), (install-json,3,
811222874,811223285)]
...
And the same issue is appearing as before (with 0 event batches getting
queued corresponding to dropped messages). Our kafka brokers are on version
0.8.2.0, if that makes a difference.
Also as a sanity check, I took out the ZK updates and reran (just in case
that was somehow causing problems), and that didn't change anything as
expected.
Furthermore, the 0 event batches seem to take longer to process than
batches with the regular load of events: processing time for 0 event
batches can be upwards of 1 - 2 minutes, whereas processing time for ~2000
event batches is consistently < 1s. Why would that happen?
As for the checkpoint call:
directKStream.checkpoint(checkpointDuration)
was an attempt to set the checkpointing interval (at some multiple of the
batch interval), whereas StreamingContext.checkpoint seems like it will
only set the checkpoint directory.
Thanks for all the help,
Susan
