  • --blacklist <String: Java regex(String)>: This specifies the blacklist of topics to be mirrored. This can be a regular expression as well.
  • --consumer.config <String: config file>: This specifies the path to the consumer configuration file to consume from a source cluster. Multiple files may be specified.
