the resolution was to resolve the always complaining:
ERROR [KafkaApi-1001] Number of alive brokers '2' does not meet the required replication factor '3' for the offsets topic (configured via 'offsets.topic.replication.factor'). This error can be ignored if the cluster is starting up and not all brokers are up yet. (kafka.server.KafkaApis)
I have this HCP setup as demo, and only have 2 kafka brokers,
just simply goto Ambari/Kafka/configs then change offsets.topic.replication.factor=2,
