How can i kill distributed worker in Kafka cluster?
apache-kafka, apache-kafka-connect
Solution
Killing two processes isn't good idea
`ConnectDistributed` is only one process. There is no separate REST server to stop.
And yes, `:connector/pause` followed by a `kill <pid>` is the correct way to stop it.
If installed with a recent version of Confluent Platform, you can stop/start using `systemctl`.
Problem
I am working with Apache Kafka and using distributed worker. I can start my worker as below: ``` // Command to start the distributed worker. "bin/connect-distributed.sh config/connect-distributed.properties" ``` This is from official documentation. After this we can create connectors and tasks. And this works fine. But when i change my connector or task logic I should add new `jar` to classpath of kafka. And after this I should restart worker. I don't know how it should be right I think we should stop and run worker. But when I want to stop worker I don't know how i can do it correctly. ofcourse, I can find my process by `ps aux | grep worker`, kill it and kill rest server which i should find by `ps` too. But i think it's strange case. Killing two processes isn't good idea, but i can't find any information how we can do it in another way. If you know right way, please help me:) Thanks for your time.
