Alexander Lorenz-Alten resolved FLUME-319.
------------------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
> Logical nodes should act as roles and be spawned on multiple hosts
> ------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLUME-319
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-319
> Project: Flume
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: v0.9.4
> Reporter: Mathias Herberts
>
> Today logical nodes allow multiple configurations to be run in a single JVM.
> When running clusters of similar machines, it happens quite often that all
> machines behave the same as far as flume is concerned, they will for example
> all collect similar logs and metrics.
> Today a logical configuration has to be defined for each machine and then
> spawned on the host. This is tedious and error prone. It would be way better
> if we could define a logical node once (let's call it a role) and spawn it on
> each node of the cluster.
> exec config myrole myflow mysource mysink
> exec spawn node1 myrole
> exec spawn node2 myrole
> exec spawn node3 myrole
> ...
> This could probably be done by creating a 'logicalnode@physicalnode' virtual
> node upon spawn.
