| `STATE`           | The current state of a given partition. This can be`EMPTY`(for online masters) or`ASYNC`- data is asynchronously replicated from the master partition.`SYNC`- data is synchronously replicated from the master partition.`READY`- a transition state from async to sync replication used to guarantee that replicas are connected and blocking commits if metadata indicates them as sync.`UNRECOVERABLE`- due to a bug in writing out log records, or a resource issue that replay fails to handle appropriately, for example, disk IO issue, or out of memory (OOM). No user action can be done to bring it back to any other state. |
