broker data directory

Just wanna make sure, in server.properties, the configuration
log.dirs=/tmp/kafka-logs

specifies the directory of where the log (data) stores, right?

If I want the data to be saved elsewhere, this is the configuration I need
to change, right?

Thanks for answering.

best,

Yes indeed.

# A comma seperated list of directories under which to store log files
log.dirs=/var/lib/kafka

You can put several disk/partitions too.
