Chris Egerton reassigned KAFKA-10149:
-------------------------------------
Assignee: (was: Bob Barrett)
> Do not prevent automatic preferred election when reassignment in progress
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-10149
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-10149
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Jason Gustafson
> Priority: Major
>
> Currently the controller will not do preferred leader elections automatically
> when a reassignment is in progress. If a broker crashes or is restarted with
> a reassignment in progress, this leaves the leadership massively skewed until
> the reassignment completes. I am not sure if there is a good reason for this,
> but it seems not ideal.
