There are currently four types of delete: bin/kafka-consumer-groups.sh --zookeeper 192.168.50.11:2181 --delete --group g1 --group g5 bin/kafka-consumer-groups.sh --zookeeper 192.168.50.11:2181 --delete --group g3 --group g4 --topic t2 bin/kafka-consumer-groups.sh --zookeeper 192.168.50.11:2181 --delete --topic t1 bin/kafka-consumer-groups.sh --zookeeper 192.168.50.11:2181 --delete --topic t3 --force-delete --force-delete only applies to topic-wide delete. My concern was that when you do a topic-wide delete, you can potentially impact many consumer groups. So by default, topic-wide delete first checks if the topic still exists. My reasoning was that if a topic still exists during a topic-wide offset delete, it probably wasn't intentional. It overrides the default behavior by ignoring the topic-existance check. One complication of the topic existance check is the following scenario: 1. We delete topic t. 2. t gets recreated due to some producers still producing events to t. 3. We try to do a topic-wide offset delete on t. 4. The check will prevent the offset delete from happening. --force-delete attempts to address that scenario. I agree that it is not safe to delete offsets while the group is active, and none of the 4 deletes currently check for this. While it is documented, it makes more sense to push this into the code. - Onur ----------------------------------------------------------- This is an automatically generated e-mail.
