I imagine it is jst another pipelinable class loaded into the collector? If so bill's scenario would work.

Eric, I'm also curious about how the HBase integration works. Do you
have time to write something up on it? I'm interested in the
possibility of extending what's there to write my own custom data into
HBase from a collector, while said data also continues through to HDFS
as it does currently.

Eric in chukwa 0.5 is hbase the final store instead of hdfs? What format will the hbase data be in (e.g. A chukwarecord object ? Something user
configurable? )

Hi Matt,

This is expected in Chukwa archives. When agent is unable to post to
the collector, it will retry to post the same data again to another
collector or retrys with the same collector when no other collector is available. Collector may have data written without proper acknowledge
back to agent in high load situation.  Chukwa philosophy is to retry
until receiving acknowledgement.  Duplicated data filter will be
treated after data has been received.

The duplication filtering in Chukwa 0.3.0 depends on data loading to
mysql.  The same primary key will update to the same row to remove
duplicates.  It is possible to build a duplication detection process
prior to demux which filter data based on sequence id + data type +
csource (host), but this hasn't been implemented because primary key
update method works well for my use case.

In Chukwa 0.5, we are treating duplication the same as in Chukwa 0.3, where it will replace any duplicated row in HBase base on Timestamp +
HBase row key.

regards,
Eric

Hey everyone,

I have a situation where I'm seeing duplicated data downstream before the demux process. It appears this happens during high system loads and we are
still using the 0.3.0 series.

So, we have validated that there is a single, unique entry in our source file which then shows up a random amount of times before we see it in demux. So, it appears that there is duplication happening somewhere between the
agent and collector.

Has anyone else seen this? Any ideas as to why we are seeing this during
high system loads, but not during lower loads.

TIA,
Matt
