Hari Shreedharan commented on FLUME-1946:
-----------------------------------------
Agreed. I don't think we can get rid of code for the old format completely, but
we could rip out that code and move it out to a separate tool/module that
simply upgrades the channel offline. My guess is that most users would have
upgraded to the new channel code, but there would still be a small % of users
running flume-1.2.0, and we need to support their data upgrade.

> Project: Flume
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: File Channel
> Reporter: Mike Percy

> It would be great to investigate changes to the FileChannel that enable it to
> tolerate failure of one or more disks in a group of data directories across
> disks without losing data. This involves implementing support for some form
> of mirroring at the software level, as well as appropriate recovery routines.
