New mirror maker consumer.config question

[tao xiao <xi...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I discovered that the new mirror maker implementation in trunk now only
accept one consumer.config property instead of a list of them which means
we can only supply one source per mirror maker process. Is it a reason for
it? If I have multiple source kafka clusters do I need to setup multiple
mirror maker processes?

Yes, in 0.8.2, each mirror maker instance will only be able to consumer
from one source. The reasoning for that is accepting consumers from
multiple sources complicates monitoring and configuration. If you have
multiple sources to mirror from, it's simpler to just run multiple
instances of mirror maker, one for each source.

Thanks,

Jun
