Hari Shreedharan commented on FLUME-1946:
-----------------------------------------

I am planning to start looking into this. I intend to do:
* New format for the channel, with sync marker support
* Mirror the events on write. 

I am thinking about working on a one-pager to come up with a requirements spec.

> 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.
