Port 9092 is more like a "preferred" port. If no explicit option is provided then system would try to start Kafka by default at 9092. However if that port is busy then a random port would be selected. This is done to ensure that Standalone OpenWhisk needs minimum required free port (for now only 3233). Rest all services can be started at any port and then dependent service would be configured as per randomly selected port If a user explicitly provides a port like `--kafka-port 9010` then Kafka would be started at that port. If the port is busy then Kafka would fail to start. This support is mostly meant for test which would like to know where Kafka would start ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
