 Could you file a JIRA report for this so that we can keep track of it and fix?

If a standby task is suspended, it will write the checkpoint file again after 
flushing its state stores, and when it resumes it does not re initialize the 
position on the consumer and hence it is still the task-manager's 
responsibility to set the right starting offset from the latest checkpoint 
file. If we did not do that, that should still be a bug.

Hi Guozhang,
Thanks for the reply.
So, if I understand it correctly. In versions where KIP-429 was not implemented 
and when we were suspending the standby tasks during rebalance and they were 
resumed post rebalance, they will be reading from the beginning of the offsets 
of changelog, since the will be reading from standbyTask.checkpointedOffsets() 
which was only updated during the first initialization.

Navinder

 Hello Navinder,

Sorry for the late reply and thanks for bringing this up. I think this is
indeed a bug that needs to be fixed.

The rationale behind was the following: for restoring active tasks and
processing standby tasks, we are using the same consumer client within the
thread (the restoreConsumer). And before ALL of the active tasks have
completed restoration, the consumer would not get assigned to any of the
standby tasks at all. So in a timeline it should be looking like this with
a rebalance assuming KIP-429 is already in place:

T0: rebalance triggered, some tasks gets revoked but some others may still
be active;
T0-T1: a subset of active tasks (via the main consumer) and all standby
tasks (via the restore consumer) are still processing;
T1: rebalance finished, some new tasks gets assigned, and now needs to be
restored. Restore consumer re-assign to fetch from those restoring consumer
only.
T1-T2: the main consumer paused all partitions, hence no active tasks
processing; also restore consumer only fetching for restoring tasks, and
hence no standby tasks processing;
T2: restoration completed, restore consumer reassigned to those standby
tasks.

Note in T1, the standby tasks are all still "running" but they just do not
proceed any more since the consumer has switched to fetch other partitions;
so at T2 when the consumer switch back it should just resume from where it
has switched off.
