> On a more important note, I believe deletion of data should never be a default option regardless of whether there are other configurations which might lead to the same situation! Assume that the user configures the remote-retention time to 1 year and remote-retention size to 1 TB and local-retention time to 1 day and local-retention size to 10 GB per partition. After one year, if the user wants to disable the remote storage and if we go with "retain" policy by default, then the local-log segments are not eligible for deletion until all the remote log segments gets deleted. The local machine may not have sufficient space to hold the 1 TB of data and can lead to disk getting full on the broker. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
