Issue/Introduction
Resolve Disconnected from node error when publish message to Kafka
Environment
All systems

The error usually occurs when the firewall forcibly closes a connection. To overcome such an issue, please assign a non-zero value in the SendMessage activity -> General -> Retries.
This will make the Kafka client auto-resend the message in case of a transient error.
