In Kafka broker failure resiliency tests, we were seeing
ProducerFencedExceptions
being thrown. Typically, these are as a result of trying to create a producer with atransactional.id
which is still in use, however that shouldn't be possible in this situation.Further investigation showed that a producer could also be fenced if it attempts an operation using an old epoch; this is a more likely option, due to a broker-side timeout caused by the injected Kafka failure. To combat this, we should catch the
ProducerFencedException
and re-throw it as aProducerRequiresReset
, which will trigger the producer to be safely reset in dependent components.
