Currently client (e.g. producer, consumer) fetches metadata from the least loaded node. Because Kafka Controller sends UpdataMetadataRequest to brokers concurrently and there may be difference in when brokers process the UpdateMetadataRequest, it is possible that client fetches a metadata that is older than the existing metadata in its cache. This can cause OffsetOutOfRangeException in consumer even if there is no log truncation in the Kafka cluster (See KAFKA-6262 for more detail). For MirrorMaker whose offset reset policy is oldest, it can cause MM to rewind back to consume from the oldest offset. This increases the latency of transmitting the data from source to destination cluster and duplicates many data in the destination cluster.
