Stevo Slavic created KAFKA-1737: ----------------------------------- Summary: Document required ZkSerializer for ZkClient used with AdminUtils Key: KAFKA-1737 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1737 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Improvement Components: tools Affects Versions: 0.8.1.1 Reporter: Stevo Slavic Priority: Minor
{{ZkClient}} instances passed to {{AdminUtils}} calls must have {{kafka.utils.ZKStringSerializer}} set as {{ZkSerializer}}. Otherwise commands executed via {{AdminUtils}} may not be seen/recognizable to broker, producer or consumer. E.g. producer (with auto topic creation turned off) will not be able to send messages to a topic created via {{AdminUtils}}, it will throw {{UnknownTopicOrPartitionException}}. Please consider at least documenting this requirement in {{AdminUtils}} scaladoc.
