> When the AbstractHDFSWriter fails to close a file (due to exceeding the
> callTimeout or other hdfs issues), it will leave the the file open and never
> try again. The only way to close the open files is to restart the flume
> agent. There should be a configurable option to allow the sink to retry to
> close files that had previously failed to close.
