[jira] [Created] (KAFKA-10353) Trogdor - Fix RoundTripWorker to not fail when the topic it's trying to create already exists

Stanislav Kozlovski created KAFKA-10353:
-------------------------------------------

             Summary: Trogdor - Fix RoundTripWorker to not fail when the topic it's trying to create already exists
                 Key: KAFKA-10353
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-10353
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Stanislav Kozlovski


Trogdor's RoundTripWorker calls WorkerUtils#createTopics with a failOnCreate flag equal to true, making the code throw an exception if the topic already exists.

[https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/28b7d8e21656649fb09b09f9bacfe865b0ca133c/tools/src/main/java/org/apache/kafka/trogdor/workload/RoundTripWorker.java#L149]

This is prone to race conditions when scheduling multiple workers to start at the same time - only one will succeed in creating a topic and running the test, while the rest will end up with a fatal error

This has also been seen to happen in the RoundTripFaultTest system test where a network exception can cause the CreateTopics request to reach Kafka but Trogdor retry it and hit a TopicAlreadyExists exception on the retry, failing the test.
