I'm running into a few challenges trying to evaluate offsets and lag (pending message count) in the new Java KafkaConsumer. The old ConsumerOffsetChecker doesn't work anymore since the offsets aren't stored in zookeeper after switching from the old consumer. This would be fine, but the kafka-consumer-groups.sh command doesn't work if the consumers are shut off. This seems like an unnecessary limitation and is problematic for troubleshooting / monitoring when the application is turned off (or while my application is running due to our stopping/starting consumers).
Is there a constraint that I'm not aware of or is this something that could be changed?
