sriharsha chintalapani commented on KAFKA-1273: ----------------------------------------------- I am not able to reproduce this in the trunk as kafka-server-start.sh fails to start the broker throwing java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: requirement failed: replica.fetch.max.bytes has value 1024 which is not in the range (2048,2147483647). its checking if the replica.fetch.max.bytes >= message.max.bytes. > Brokers should make sure replica.fetch.max.bytes >= message.max.bytes > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-1273 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1273 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Bug > Components: replication > Affects Versions: 0.8.0 > Reporter: Dong Zhong > Assignee: Neha Narkhede > Labels: newbie > > If message.max.bytes is larger than replica.fetch.max.bytes,followers can't > fetch data from the leader and will incur endless retry. And this may cause > high network traffic between followers and leaders. > Brokers should make sure replica.fetch.max.bytes >= message.max.bytes by > adding a sanity check, or throw an exception. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
