How to define Kafka storage path on Confluent CLI

[AAlex-11]

I have simple local installation docs.confluent.io/platform/current/installation/installing_cp/… and it working perfectly, but important parameters can not changed.

I use standard home path for confluent center

   export CONFLUENT_HOME=/home/kafka/confluent/confluent-7.4.0

Unfortunately, I can not change path to store data. I found Kafka config in path and set up needed storage

  cat /home/kafka/confluent/confluent-7.4.0/etc/kafka/server.properties | grep log.dir
  log.dirs=/storage/kafka-logs

Than I restart Confluent Platform, however Path is wrong

 ./confluent local services start
 The local commands are intended for a single-node development environment only, NOT for production usage. See more: https://docs.confluent.io/current/cli/index.html
 As of Confluent Platform 8.0, Java 8 is no longer supported.

 Using CONFLUENT_CURRENT: /tmp/confluent.430818
 Starting ZooKeeper

 Kafka is [UP]

I try to use Clonfluent CLI to change path to store data, but not found this parameter. I try to use

./ confluent context list 

in order to update and receive answer - Context None found. Second possible to manage default setting

./confluent kafka acl list

answer is Error: Kafka REST URL not found, but in reality REST API found

If I try to use

  ./confluent kafka topic list 

give me "No session token found, please enter user credentials. To avoid being prompted, run "confluent login". - login to what? Login to confluent cloud need credit card firstly, even to free plan. What this is trash? To change configuration on my local installation I must set up my credit card to Confluent company? Or what login means this command line?

confluent kafka topic list is a cloud command and not included in confluent local experiences, that's why you were getting authentication errors. any confluent local commands should always start with confluent local. please run --help to see available commands. Can you try installing cli directly via curl -sL --http1.1 https://cnfl.io/cli | sh -s -- latest and see if that fixes the issue? also please notice that this is the old confluent local commands and should be deprecated, so we hide them in latest versions even though you'll still be able to execute them. We encourage you to try the new confluent local experience by running confluent local kafka start in latest cli versions.

I'm sorry, I refuse to use Kafka in any my project (because nobody can answer to any question and support is absent at all), unfortunately I can not check this recipe.
