Remove the watches/broker for new topics and partitions and change create topic admin API to send start replica state change to all brokers -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: KAFKA-329 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-329 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 0.8 Reporter: Neha Narkhede Currently in 0.8, all brokers register a watch on /brokers/topics and /brokers/topics/[topic] for all topics in a Kafka cluster. The watches are required to discover new topics. There is another way this can be achieved, as proposed here - https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/Kafka+replication+detailed+design+V2#KafkareplicationdetaileddesignV2-Createtopic Basically, the create-topic admin command sends start-replica state change request to all brokers in the assigned replicas list. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
