Nalin, That message is logged by the Kafka server when it is starting up. Before the broker restart, if topic testTopic0.43791517871432006-0 already exists, the server loads the latest segment of that partition to append new data to it. During that time, the consumer will temporarily not be able to consume data from this broker, until it has completely restarted.
