Randall Hauch commented on KAFKA-4107: -------------------------------------- [~Satyajit], that would be great. However, the first step is to settle the outstanding questions on KIP-199, which is discussed on the mailing list thread (see KIP for link). Once that’s much closer to concensus we can then start on implementation. > Support offset reset capability in Kafka Connect > ------------------------------------------------ > > Key: KAFKA-4107 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-4107 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: KafkaConnect > Reporter: Jason Gustafson > > It would be useful in some cases to be able to reset connector offsets. For > example, if a topic in Kafka corresponding to a source database is > accidentally deleted (or deleted because of corrupt data), an administrator > may want to reset offsets and reproduce the log from the beginning. It may > also be useful to have support for overriding offsets, but that seems like a > less likely use case. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
