KB441508: How to configure Apache Kafka Server and Log Consumer on Windows

Apache Kafka Server
The Kafka Server can be configured by modifying the file: C:\Program Files (x86)\Strategy\Messaging Services\Kafka\kafka_2.11-0.10.1.0\config\server.properties
Both Apache Kafka Server and ZooKeeper should be restarted after modifying the above configuration file. 
Log Consumer
By default the Log Consumer is connecting to the Local Kafka Server. There are two ways to modify the configuration of Log Consumer.

• Delete "C:\Program Files (x86)\Strategy\Intelligence Server\KafkaConsumer\LogConsumer.properties" and run below command to configure, and then follow the steps in the command line. 

C:\Program Files (x86)\Strategy\Intelligence Server\KafkaConsumer>java -jar KafkaConsumer.jar

• Modify file "C:\Program Files (x86)\Strategy\Intelligence Server\KafkaConsumer\LogConsumer.properties" directly

folder_path=C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Common Files\\Strategy\\Log\\DSSErrors
