Description

1. set server.properties
server.properties:
zookeeper.connect = 192.168.0.10:2181,192.168.0.10:2181,192.168.0.10:2181/kafka

2 default zookeeepr path:
[zk: 192.168.0.10:2181(CONNECTED) 10] ls /
[zookeeper, kafka, storm]

3.start console consumer use a not exist topic and zookeeper address without chroot.
[root@stream client_0402]# kafka-console-consumer.sh --zookeeper 192.168.0.10:2181 --topic test --from-beginning
[2015-04-03 18:15:28,599] WARN [console-consumer-63060_stream-1428056127990-d35ca648], no brokers found when trying to rebalance. (kafka.consumer.ZookeeperConsumerConnector)

4.then "/consumer" and "/brokers" path was create in zookeeper.

[zk: 192.168.0.10:2181(CONNECTED) 2] ls /
[zookeeper, consumers, kafka, storm, brokers]

so it is a bug. consumer should not create "/consumer" and "/brokers" path .
