Hari Shreedharan commented on FLUME-1946:
-----------------------------------------
I have been looking at Avro container files as an option here. Avro container
files do give an option to get the offset of a specific sync marker, which we
could use as the offset to specific events. I am working on a simple
implementation right now to see how things look. I am trying not to change the
APIs and expected behavior, which will allow us to use the current unit tests.
> Tolerate disk failure in FileChannel

> Key: FLUME-1946
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-1946
> Project: Flume
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: File Channel
> Reporter: Mike Percy
> Assignee: Hari Shreedharan
>
> 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.
