Re: Changing the Replication Factor

Hi,

>>> re: http://grokbase.com/t/kafka/users/13c2rdc2yj/changing-the-replication-factor
Is it possible to change the replication factor now or is it still in the pipeline?

Thanks,
Sagar

It is possible to change the replication factor by using the partition
reassignment tool:

http://kafka.apache.org/documentation.html#basic_ops_increase_replication_factor

but it requires a manually edited JSON file, KAFKA-1543 tries to make it
easier with a separate command tool.
