I've used confluent Kafka before and normally i'd change the log.dirs=my-NEW-Location in server.properties file located in /etc/kafka/.
I Just installed Confluent 3.3.0 on my Ubuntu 16.04 machine.. its starts no problem using command confluent start kafka. I've tried to change the log.dirs in server.properties to my new location but confluent is not picking it up for some reason. After checking the server.log file Confluent creates the logs in /tmp/confluent.SOME_RAMDOM_STRING/, Is there a way to change this?
