Wenjie Zhang commented on KAFKA-6219:
-------------------------------------

We are seeing the similar issue. Basically, we have the ACL configured, the 
read is opened to all IPs, but the write is restricted to a few IPs.
When running `bin/kafka-consumer-groups.sh --list --bootstrap-server`, it does 
not return anything, but running `bin/kafka-consumer-groups.sh  --describe 
-group` works fine.

> Inconsistent behavior for kafka-consumer-groups

> For example, when ACL is enabled, running kafka-consumer-groups.sh --describe 
> to describe a group complains:
> `Error: Executing consumer group command failed due to Not authorized to 
> access group: Group authorization failed.`
> However, running kafka-consumer-groups.sh --list otherwise returns nothing, 
> confusing user whether there are no groups at all or something wrong happened.
> In `AdminClient.listAllGroups`, it captures all the possible exceptions and 
> returns an empty List.
> It's better keep those two methods consistent. Does it make any sense?
