Jun Rao commented on KAFKA-2082:
--------------------------------
After step 2), which broker is the new controller? The new controller should be
able to detect that broker 1 and 3 are dead and move the leaders to other
brokers. So, was the issue that the new broker didn't detect the failure of
broker 1 and 3 properly or it didn't propagate the new metadata properly.

> While running integration tests for Sarama (the go client) we came across a
> pattern of connection losses that reliably puts kafka into a bad state:

> This can be easily and reliably reproduced using the {{toxiproxy-final}}
> branch of https://github.com/Shopify/sarama which includes a vagrant script
> for provisioning the appropriate cluster:
> - {{git clone https://github.com/Shopify/sarama.git}}
> - {{git checkout test-jira-kafka-2082}}
> - {{vagrant up}}
> - {{TEST_SEED=1427917826425719059 DEBUG=true go test -v}}
> After the test finishes (it fails because the cluster ends up in a bad
> state), you can log into the cluster machine with {{vagrant ssh}} and inspect
> the bad nodes. The vagrant script provisions five zookeepers and five brokers
> in {{/opt/kafka-9091/}} through {{/opt/kafka-9095/}}.
> Additional context: the test produces continually to the cluster while
> randomly cutting and restoring zookeeper connections (all connections to
> zookeeper are run through a simple proxy on the same vm to make this easy).
> The majority of the time this works very well and does a good job exercising
> our producer's retry and failover code. However, under certain patterns of
> connection loss (the {{TEST_SEED}} in the instructions is important), kafka
> gets confused. The test never cuts more than two connections at a time, so
> zookeeper should always have quorum, and the topic (with three replicas)
> should always be writable.
> Completely restarting the cluster via {{vagrant reload}} seems to put it back
> into a sane state.
