To send failed records to a dead letter queue (DLQ), you must configure:

errors.tolerance=all: Tells the connector to not fail on errors but handle them (e.g., send to DLQ).

errors.deadletterqueue.topic.name=DLQ-Topic: Specifies the DLQ topic.

errors.deadletterqueue.context.headers.enable=true: Includes error context in message headers.

From Kafka Connect Error Handling Docs:

“Kafka Connect supports directing problematic records to a separate topic (DLQ) using errors.* configs. Headers can include failure metadata.”

Options D, E, F are related to logging, not DLQ behavior.

The ConsumerRebalanceListener lets you handle partition assignments and revocations during rebalances. This is critical for managing offsets, stateful processing, or external transactions.

From Kafka Consumer Rebalance Docs:

“Implementing ConsumerRebalanceListener allows your application to take action before and after partitions are reassigned.”

A is true: It lets your app react when partitions assigned to the consumer change.

B, C, and D are unrelated to consumer rebalancing directly.

The default maximum message size that a Kafka broker accepts is 1MB (1,048,576 bytes), controlled by the config property message.max.bytes.

From Kafka Broker Configuration Docs:

“The default maximum message size is 1MB. To accept larger messages, configure message.max.bytes and the producer’s max.request.size.”

Producers also have a matching limit via max.request.size, and consumers via fetch.message.max.bytes.
