Juhani Connolly commented on FLUME-1457:
----------------------------------------
I think we had a discussion about this before where we decided that un-drained
channels were ok, because a sink may be later associated to it(though with our
current configuration this isn't possible).
Should we verify for channels without connected sources/sinks in the node
config?
> Source should not submit event to Channel which it doesnot connect to any Sink

> If there has Channel (mc) and it does not connect to any Sink, Source
> shouldn't submit event to it.
> Configuration example:
> {quote}
> #Channels that Source connect to
> agent.sources.scribesource.channels = mc
> #No specified Sink connect to this Channel
> {quote}
> Otherwise, event in this Channel is increasing and no consumer, it's
> misunderstanding.
