------------------------------------
Summary: Improve the KRaft metadata version related messages
Key: KAFKA-15949
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-15949
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 3.6.0
Reporter: Jakub Scholz
Various error messages related to KRaft seem to use very different style and
formatting. Just for example in the {{StorageTool}} Scala class, there are two
different examples:
* {{Must specify a valid KRaft metadata version of at least 3.0.}}
** Refers to "metadata version"
** Refers to the version as 3.0 (although strictly speaking 3.0-IV0 is not
valid for KRaft)
* {{SCRAM is only supported in metadataVersion IBP_3_5_IV2 or later.}}
** Talks about "metadataVersion"
** Refers to "IBP_3_5_IV2" instead of "3.5" or "3.5-IV2"
Other pieces of Kafka code seem to also talk about "metadata.version" for
example.
For users, it would be nice if the style and formats used were the same
everywhere. Would it be worth unifying messages like this? If yes, what would
be the preferred style to use?
