How to configure Kafka to increase the number of replic…

To increase the number of replicas in a Kafka cluster, you need to configure it by following these steps:

  1. Configuration file for the server
  2. number of replica fetchers
  3. subject.
  4. The subject of my discussion
# Topic配置
topic.mytopic=
  1. I need to discuss the topic.
# 副本数
topic.mytopic.replication.factor=3

In the examples above, set the replication factor to 3. You can change the replication factor to your desired value as needed. Save and close the configuration file. Restart each broker in the Kafka cluster to apply the configuration changes.

After completing the above steps, Kafka will create or redistribute replicas based on the new replica configuration. Please note that replica allocation may take some time and could impact the performance of the Kafka cluster. Therefore, make sure the cluster has enough resources to handle the additional replicas before increasing the replica count.
