Hi about question 1, it's dosen't matter that how many consumers in same consumer group.
So you means the broker which is coordinator did not crashed at all before? May i know if only exact one broker(coordinator) is unavailable or many are? if only exact one, you can try to transfer leader of _consumer_offset which on that broker to another broker to see if it's no problem any more? i found the following issue seems similar with yours, FYR: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/51952398/kafka-connect-distributed-mode-the-group-coordinator-is-not-available Best, Lisheng Hrishikesh Mishra <sd.hri...@gmail.com> 于2019年8月29日周四 下午12:19写道: > Hi, > > We are facing following issues with Kafka cluster. > > - Kafka Version: 2.0.0 > - We following cluster configuration: > - Number of Broker: 14 > - Per Broker: 37GB Memory and 14 Cores. > - Topics: 40 - 50 > - Partitions per topic: 32 > - Replicas: 3 > - Min In Sync Replica: 2 > - __consumer_topic partition: 50 > - offsets.topic.replication.factor=3 > - default.replication.factor=3 > - Consumers#: ~4000 (will grow to ~7K) > - Consumer Groups#: ~4000 (will grow to ~7K) > > > Imp: Here one consumer is consuming from one topic and one consumer group > has only one consumer due to some architectural constraints. > > Two major problems we are facing with consumer group: > > - First time when we are starting consumer with new group name it > working very well.
