Description

kafka-server-stop.sh greps for the process ID to kill with the following:

PIDS=$(ps ax | grep -i 'kafka\.Kafka' | grep java | grep -v grep | awk '{print $1}')

However, if Kafka is launched via the kafka-server-start.sh script, the process doesn't include kafka.Kafka, the grep fails to find the process, and it returns the failure message, No Kafka server to stop.
