ASF GitHub Bot commented on KAFKA-6101: --------------------------------------- Github user tedyu closed the pull request at: https://github.com/apache/kafka/pull/4108 > Reconnecting to broker does not exponentially backoff > ----------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-6101 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-6101 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Bug > Components: clients > Affects Versions: 0.11.0.0 > Reporter: Sean Rohead > Attachments: 6101.v2.txt, 6101.v3.txt, text.html > > > I am using com.typesafe.akka:akka-stream-kafka:0.17 which relies on > kafka-clients:0.11.0.0. > I have set the reconnect.backoff.max.ms property to 60000. > When I start the application without kafka running, I see a flood of the > following log message: > [warn] o.a.k.c.NetworkClient - Connection to node -1 could not be > established. Broker may not be available. > The log messages occur several times a second and the frequency of these > messages does not decrease over time as would be expected if exponential > backoff was working properly. > I set a breakpoint in the debugger in ClusterConnectionStates:188 and noticed > that every time this breakpoint is hit, nodeState.failedAttempts is always 0. > This is why the delay does not increase exponentially. It also appears that > every time the breakpoint is hit, it is on a different instance, so even > though the number of failedAttempts is incremented, we never get the > breakpoint for the same instance more than one time. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
