A Flume agent started before collectors in E2E mode could fail to connect to
the collector
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: FLUME-927
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-927
Project: Flume
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Sinks+Sources
Affects Versions: v0.9.4, v0.9.5
Reporter: Prasad Mujumdar
Assignee: Prasad Mujumdar
Fix For: v0.9.5
The write ahead log (WAL) mechanism expects the agent sink to be active in 1
second. After that, it assumes that the agent couldn't connect to collector and
shuts it down. The AgentSink has a retry mechanism that handles network
problems, unavailable collector etc for a configurable amount of time. The
hardcode 1 sec timeout in WAL decorator invalidates this retry mechanism.
