Hi Jun,

Was trying out this last option or else would use the Simpleconsumer.

I am tryting to set the offset of my choice using

getZkClinet().createPersistent("/consumers/test_group/offsets/golf4/0-0",
"22274");

or
 
ZkUtils.updatePersistentPath(getZkClinet(),"/consumers/test_group/offsets/golf4/0-0",
"22274");

But was getting this exception

 ZookeeperConsumerConnector:66 -
test_group_ajits-machine-1347505711889-9df96cdb exception during rebalance
