check_kafka

The Control-M/EM check_kafka utility checks the status of the Apache Kafka service.

Control-M/EM runs the check_kafka utility periodically, so you do not need to manually run it.

If an issue is detected during an automatic run of the utility, a status message appears for the Apache Kafka service in the Configuration domain.
