Thanks Jungtaek, that makes sense. I tried Burak’s solution of just turning failOnDataLoss to be false, but instead of failing, the job is stuck. I’m guessing that the offsets are being deleted faster than the job can process them and it will be stuck unless I increase resources? Or does once the exception happen, spark will hang?
