-----------------------------------

             Summary: Add option to the controlled shutdown tool to timeout after n secs
                 Key: KAFKA-781
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-781
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: tools
    Affects Versions: 0.8
            Reporter: Neha Narkhede
            Priority: Critical


Right now, the controlled shutdown tool has a number of retries option. This is required since it might take multiple retries to move leaders from a broker. However, it is convenient to also have an option that allows the tool to timeout after n secs and retry until then.
