Rolling restart kafka or zookeeper managed by sps on demand

[elvis-cai]

Dear friend, we are using StrimziPodSet for kafka & zookeeper, somethings we want to change the pod node pool manually using kubectl cordon command, just wondering if there's any try to trigger a manual rolling restart for each of them, trying to search doc, I can find kafkaconnetor could be restart with kubectl annotate KafkaConnector <connector-name> strimzi.io/restart=true, however no luck for sps so far, thanks in advance. 🙏

There are manual rolling update annotations you can use for Kafka and ZooKeeper nodes. You can find the exact name of the annotation in the docs - I think it is stirmzi.io/manual-rolling-update, but not 100% sure.

Thanks @scholzj for the prompt reponse 👍 , found it here using

kubectl annotate strimzipodset <cluster_name>-kafka strimzi.io/manual-rolling-update=true

kubectl annotate strimzipodset <cluster_name>-zookeeper strimzi.io/manual-rolling-update=true
