>                 Key: STORM-380
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STORM-380
>             Project: Apache Storm (Incubating)
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>            Reporter: Stephen Elliott
>            Priority: Minor
>
> If one of the partitions of the Kafka queue has no leader available, DynamicBrokersReader.getLeaderFor(partition) returns -1. This is logged in DynamicBrokersReader.getBrokerInfo (as there's no ZK node for a broker id -1) but there is no further action.
> In this situation the spout will carry on emitting only for those partitions that are available.
> My assumption is that if some partitions for a queue are unavailable, there's a problem that needs to be addressed before processing continues. Happy to discuss further.
