ANDY YANG commented on FLUME-2521:
----------------------------------
Strongly agree - some kind of browser or monitor to display details about
contents in file channel would not be amiss. Right now it's just one big black
box.
> Ability to manually recover data from corrupted file channel

> Key: FLUME-2521
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-2521
> Project: Flume
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Channel, File Channel
> Reporter: Bijith Kumar
>
> Though a file channel could be corrupted for a number of reasons, currently
> there is no way to recover the events from flume files. E.g.
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-2519
> In the event of such a failure, considerable amount of data could be stuck in
> the channel files. It is critical to have at least a manual recovery option
> so that the data in file channel could be extracted out.
> A tool or even some instructions to do this manually would be a great thing.
