Description

Hi All, 

We are using apache camel to connect to the Kafka endpoint which internally uses Kafka-client to connect to the Kafka broker.

When the broker is down, the client keeps logging warn messages "node -1 disconnected, Broker may not be available" and never gives up and throws an exception, because of this application never stops polling.

Is there any config parameter in the client that allows the poll function to throw RuntimeException or this is a bug?
