Re: [I] iceberg-kafka-connect zombie coordinator thread when writing to S3 fails [iceberg]
flysen commented on issue #16016:
URL: https://github.com/apache/iceberg/issues/16016#issuecomment-5599650323
**Independent confirmation on 1.11.0 / AWS Glue Catalog**
We hit this exact zombie-coordinator signature during the same incident we described on #15293 ([our comment there](https://github.com/apache/iceberg/issues/15293#issuecomment-5598930908)) — triggered by a targeted consumer-group offset reset, not a storage failure or cluster rebuild.
Across that ~17-hour incident we found the `"found no partitions assigned across all members, cannot determine leader"` WARN logged 88 times across all 6 tasks — initially dismissed as benign, but it's the exact `hasLeaderPartition()`-returns-false-during-rebalance condition described here, which skips `stopCoordinator()` in `close()`. Matches @tongwai-wong-appier's 1.11.0 confirmation: no storage failure needed, an ordinary rebalance is enough.
One caveat: checking the `-coord` group's live membership mid-failure showed only one member at that moment, so we can't say this is the sole explanation for every failed round we saw — possibly a residual effect once the zombie itself is gone. Full evidence (thread dumps, ruled-out causes, timeline) is on #15293 if useful.
+1 to @gdmachado's fix direction (remember leader partition at `open()`, stop unconditionally on it in `close()` rather than re-querying group state mid-rebalance).
