-----------------------------------------

             Summary: New Consumer should not retry indefinitely if no broker 
is available
                 Key: KAFKA-2998
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2998
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: clients
    Affects Versions: 0.9.0.0
            Reporter: Florian Hussonnois
            Priority: Minor


If no broker from bootstrap.servers is available consumer retries indefinitely 
with debug log message :
 
DEBUG 17:16:13 Give up sending metadata request since no node is available
DEBUG 17:16:13 Initialize connection to node -1 for sending metadata request
DEBUG 17:16:13 Initiating connection to node -1 at localhost:9091.

At least, an ERROR message should be log after a number of retries.
In addition, maybe the consumer should fail in a such case ? This behavior 
could be set by a configuration property ?
