For 0.8.1.1, it looks like this tool is no longer needed. From :
- does not work out of the box,
- is no longer needed.
Do we even need this tool anymore? Currently controlled shutdown is enabled through a config and automatically kicks in during a kill -15 of a Kafka server. I almost think we can get rid of a tool to do controlled shutdown.
Here is what I ended up putting into my config/server.properties:
controlled.shutdown.enable=true
controlled.shutdown.max.retries=3
controlled.shutdown.retry.backoff.ms=5000
