> If we describe a non-existing group before the offset topic is created, like 
> the following:
> {code}
> bin/kafka-consumer-groups.sh --bootstrap-server localhost:9092 --new-consumer 
> --describe --group gggg
> {code}
> We get the following error:
> {code}
> Error while executing consumer group command The group coordinator is not 
> available.
> org.apache.kafka.common.errors.GroupCoordinatorNotAvailableException: The 
> group coordinator is not available.
> {code}
> The exception is thrown in the `adminClient.describeConsumerGroup` call. We 
> can't interpret this exception as meaning that the group doesn't exist 
> because it could also be thrown f all replicas for a offset topic partition 
> are down (as explained by Jun).
> Jun also suggested that we should distinguish if a coordinator is not 
> available from the case where a coordinator doesn't exist.
