Hi, I have a question regarding how to migrate a consumer when the subscribing topic has been migrated to the target Kafka broker. Suppose a consumer is consuming from topic1 at the source Kafka broker. When MM2 mirrors this topic using options source.cluster.alias="", replication.policy.separator="", topic named topic1 shows up at the target Kafka broker.
When the consumer instance simply switches the bootstrap server to start consuming from this topic1 at the target broker, the consumer seems to start subscribing from the latest offset. I thought the consumer offsets were also migrated to the target and the consumer could simply start subscribing from the mirrored topic from the continued offset. Did I miss some configuration parameters or does the consumer need to perform some actions to be able to consume the records seamlessly? I appreciate for your help. Thanks. regards, aki
