zhaijack commented on issue #1219: Issue 1069: Provide a setting in consumer configuration to specify where to start consuming messages URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-pulsar/pull/1219#issuecomment-372527172 @XiaoZYang, Regarding the earliest position, there may be messages before it, but has been deleted. Seems counter in getLastPositionAndCounter represent all added entries to this ledger, backlog == added_entry_counter - consumed_counter. In initializeCursorPosition(), we set `messagesConsumedCounter = lastPositionCounter.second` so the backlog is 0. While in this `getFirstPositionAndCounter`, we could make messagesConsumedCounter as value `ENTRIES_ADDED_COUNTER_UPDATER.get(this) - getNumberOfEntries(Range.openClosed(firstPosition, lastPosition))`. Besides this, seems this need rebase, and fix the unit-test error. Thanks.
