dear friends and colleges we set the KAFKA_JVM_PERFORMANCE_OPTS on all ours kafka physical machines , according to the following Link: https://community.hortonworks.com/articles/80813/kafka-best-practices-1.html we set in ambari - Advanced kafka-env the following: export KAFKA_JVM_PERFORMANCE_OPTS="-XX:MetaspaceSize=96m -XX:+UseG1GC-XX:MaxGCPauseMillis=20 -XX:InitiatingHeapOccupancyPercent=35 -XX:G1HeapRegionSize=16M-XX:MinMetaspaceFreeRatio=50 -XX:MaxMetaspaceFreeRatio=80" after we set that variable we restart the kafka broker to take affect but kafka broker fails after this settings , please advice what is wrong on the settings from the article - https://community.hortonworks.com/articles/80813/kafka-best-practices-1.html from the logs we can see that: from kafka.err more kafka.err
