Hey peeps, Anyone else encountered this and got to the bottom of it?
I'm facing a similar issue, having LSO stuck for some partitions in a topic and the consumers can't get data out of it (we're using read_committed = true). When this issue started happening we were on kafka 2.3.1 i tried: - restarting the consumers - deleting the partition from the leader and letting it get in sync with the new leader - rolling restart of the brokers - shutting down the whole cluster and starting it again - tried deleting the txnindex files (after backing them up) and restarting the brokers - tried putting down the follower brokers of a partition and resyncing that partition on them from scratch - upgraded both kafka broker and client to 2.5.0 Now the following questions arise: Where is the LSO actually stored (even if you get rid of the txnfiles, the LSO stays the same). Is there any way that the LSO can be reset? Is there any way that you can manually abort and clean the state of a stuck transaction? (i suspect that this is the reason why the LSO is stuck) Is there any way to manually trigger a consistency check on the logfiles that would fix any existing issues with either the logs or the indexes in the partition? Cheers, Dragos
