Jerome Boulon commented on CHUKWA-4:
------------------------------------
if we are using the same prefix for the recovering part and if collector is
killed while writing to the SeqFile then you will no longer be able to identify
the initial SeqFile. You'll have 2 .chukwa file, one will be an unclosed File,
the other will be the one you were recovering into.
Having a specific .recover extension will solve that problem since you can
ignored it at re-start time.
> Collectors don't finish writing .done datasink from last .chukwa datasink
> when stopped using bin/stop-collectors

> Key: CHUKWA-4
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CHUKWA-4
> Project: Hadoop Chukwa
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: data collection
> Environment: I am running on our local cluster. This is a linux
> machine that I also run Hadoop cluster from.
> Reporter: Andy Konwinski
> Priority: Minor
>
> When I use start-collectors, it creates the datasink as expected, writes to
> it as per normal, i.e. writes to the .chukwa file, and roll overs work fine
> when it renames the .chukwa file to .done. However, when I use
> bin/stop-collectors to shut down the running collector it leaves a .chukwa
> file in the HDFS file system. Not sure if this is a valid sink or not, but I
> think that the collector should gracefully clean up the datasink and rename
> it .done before exiting.
