Sravani commented on KAFKA-19785:
---------------------------------
Yes so here broker’s local Raft quorum state thinks there is no leader for
epoch 55, while an inbound message (e.g., a fetch response from another quorum
member) says leader = 3 for epoch 55. Because the epochs match but the leader
identity does not, {{hasConsistentLeader(...)}} returns false and the client
throws an {{{}IllegalStateException{}}}.
Is this understanding correct from the above errors??
