             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.
