[jira] [Created] (KAFKA-19960) Spurious failure to close StateDirectory due to some task directories still locked

Mikael Carlstedt created KAFKA-19960:
----------------------------------------

             Summary: Spurious failure to close StateDirectory due to some task directories still locked
                 Key: KAFKA-19960
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-19960
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: streams
    Affects Versions: 3.8.1
            Reporter: Mikael Carlstedt


We are seeing random failures to close state directories while closing a kafka-streams application in a test environment.

*Preconditions:*
 * Two state stores
 * Three input partitions
 * Stand-by replication enabled (NB: we have not been able to reproduce without stand-by replication)
 * Two instances running on a single host with different state directory.

The application instances are started before each test case is executed, and then closed when the test case has completed. Most of the time it works well without any errors logged, but sometimes we see this error message when closing an application instance:

 * is has a knock-on effect on all of the following test cases, which fail with this error message:

*Observation:*

 
 * Prior to the error, the two stand-by tasks that fail to release their locks are "closed and recycled":

What is it that triggers this "recycling" of stand-by tasks?
