Description

Affected version

No response

Current and expected behavior

I could recreate the problem when changing the "data" storage size.Changing CPU or Memory resources seems to work (results in a Pod restart).

Possible solution

In order to capture this we either need webhooks or track the resources in the status of the custom resource and delete and recreate the statefulset (PVCs should be resized automatically?).

Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported failure when changing a Kafka Cluster's data storage size, then trace how the operator handles resource changes compared with CPU or memory changes. Done means the data storage update is no longer silently ignored and the resulting Kafka resources behave as expected.
