I'm sorry, but I don't think we should do this in 3.9. The offline partitions metric is at least a decade old, and has always worked this way in ZK mode. Changing the behavior at this point would require a KIP. And probably even then, we'd want to create a new metric rather than changing the behavior of the old one. Topics in "deleting" state really do represent a lack of availability in some sense, since their names cannot be used until the deleting state is cleared (probably manually, by starting stopped brokers.) So some administrators may be relying on the current behavior of this metric to detect that and realize they need to do something about it. Deleting state doesn't exist in 4.0 / KRaft, so if you agree, we can just close this JIRA with fix version 4.0. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
