Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

Recovering from a failed migration from Kafka to Raft in Hyperledger Fabric involves restoring the state from a backup. This is necessary because once the ordering service is migrated to Raft and begins committing transactions, reverting to Kafka is not supported without a previous backup. If a migration is botched, and a backup was made at the appropriate point, administrators can roll back to this backup to restore the system to its pre-migration state .

I thought you could just retry the migration... surprised that's not the best way!

Rebuilding the network from scratch seems extreme, but I can't recall if that's ever necessary in these scenarios.

I’m a bit confused; I thought reverting to the previous version of Kafka was a valid recovery method too.

I've dealt with migration issues before, and in my experience, the best approach is usually to restore from a backup. That way, you can get back to a known good state.

Okay, let's see. The key here is to recover from a failed migration, so I'm guessing the answer is either restoring from a backup or reverting to the previous version of Kafka.

B) Restore the state from a backup. Duh, that's the textbook answer. Unless you want to start from scratch and build a whole new Kafka cluster.
