Hi Peter, Thanks for pointing this out.
The statement in the 3.8 upgrade notes is the correct one. JBOD in KRaft is no longer an early access feature. It seems we forgot to remove the early access notice from the list of missing features in KRaft after the 3.8 release. I created the following PR to rectifiy the mistake: https://github.com/apache/kafka/pull/16801 If you find issues in the functionality, please file a bug report here: https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/KAFKA/issues Best, -- Igor
