Summary: Topic message.max.bytes can be larger than the replica.fetch.max.bytes Key: KAFKA-1844 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1844 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Bug Reporter: Sriharsha Chintalapani Assignee: Sriharsha Chintalapani This bug is related to KAFKA-1273. Kaka Broker on startup checks to see if the configured replica.fetch.max.bytes >= message.max.bytes. But users can override message.max.bytes per topic and there is no such validation happening for per topic message.max.bytes. If the users configured message.max.bytes > replica.fetch.max.bytes , followers won't be able to fetch data. [~junrao] suggested " I was thinking that one way is to just disallow customizing max.message.size per topic. Such customization may break downstream consumers like MirrorMaker. I am not sure if there is a strong use case for the per topic customization." -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
