Hello,
I'm having trouble getting Kafka to compact a topic. It's over 300GB and
has enough segments to warrant cleaning. It should only be about 40 GB
(there is a copy in a db that is unique on the key). Below are the
configs we have (default broker) and topic override.
Is there something I'm missing on which setting is overriding which one
or something still wrongly?
retention.ms and delete.retentions.ms I set manually after creation on
the topic and some segments have been created already.
Kafka version 0.11
Server Defaults for new segments of the topic:
The settings used when a new log was created for the topic:
{compression.type -> producer, message.format.version -> 0.11.0-IV2,
file.delete.delay.ms -> 60000, max.message.bytes -> 2097152,
min.compaction.lag.ms -> 0, message.timestamp.type -> CreateTime,
min.insync.replicas -> 1, segment.jitter.ms -> 0, preallocate -> false,
min.cleanable.dirty.ratio -> 0.5, index.interval.bytes -> 4096,
unclean.leader.election.enable -> false, retention.bytes -> -1,
delete.retention.ms -> 86400000, cleanup.policy -> compact, flush.ms ->
9223372036854775807, segment.ms -> 604800000, segment.bytes ->
1073741824, retention.ms -> -1, message.timestamp.difference.max.ms ->
9223372036854775807, segment.index.bytes -> 10485760, flush.messages ->
9223372036854775807}
Topic Overrides (overridden after creation).
