Unable to process clotho Kafka topics

[bnesbitt]

We're seeing a flood of issues on our development instance and we've had no luck to this point pinpointing exactly what the cause is.  We just updated to Utah Patch 1 but were seeing this while on Tokyo.  Any ideas on how to suppress this?

I have the same questions.  We're seeing the "Unable to process clotho Kafka topics" every minute in our system logs and reports from devs the instance is slow.  We're on Vancouver Patch 3.

Kafka is an event message bus used by Instance Data Replication (IDR). Apache Kafka is an open-source distributed event streaming platform.

Hi Kristen,

It's a known issue at this time (PRB1634353).  To slow down the frequency of the errors, you can make the changes below to the system properties:

- glide.clotho.kakfa.topic_publisher.interval.seconds=60 sec,
- glide.clotho.kakfa_topic_publisher.longer.interval.seconds=120 sec
