Looking at the documentation, I can see that Kafka bridging is supported on software event brokers, but requires proper system and Message VPN scaling parameters to be configured. The documentation mentions that you need to configure “Maximum Number of Kafka Broker Connections” at both the system and Message VPN level.

If you’re encountering a Kafka Bridge limit of 0, this suggests that these scaling parameters need to be properly configured to enable Kafka bridging.

Here are the relevant sources for configuring Kafka bridging and its limits:

For the specific scaling parameters, you should refer to:

  • The “Maximum Number of Kafka Broker Connections” section in the System Scaling Parameters documentation
  • The “Configuring the Maximum Number of Kafka Broker Connections” section in the Kafka Bridging Setup Overview

Hey @swapnil_mahajan,
It looks like @Solly-AI gave a pretty awesome answer there. Did that give you what you need?

Hi @swapnil_mahajan

Are you using Solace standard or enterprise edition? When starting a broker service with docker you can add additional environment parameters for Kafka Bridge like --env system_scaling_maxkafkabridgecount=1

Example:
docker run -d -p 8080:8080 -p 55554:55555 -p 8008:8008 -p 1883:1883 -p 8000:8000 -p 5672:5672 -p 9000:9000 -p 2222:2222 --shm-size=2g --env username_admin_globalaccesslevel=admin --env username_admin_password=***** --env system_scaling_maxconnectioncount=10000 --env system_scaling_maxqueuemessagecount=240 --env system_scaling_maxkafkabridgecount=1 --env system_scaling_maxkafkabrokerconnectioncount=0 --env system_scaling_maxbridgecount=500 --env system_scaling_maxsubscriptioncount=500000 --env messagespool_maxspoolusage=10000 --name=solace solace-pubsub-enterprise:10.4.1.239
