Changes seem to be coming together well. Thanks for the prompt turnaround. Some 
feedback follows.


flume-ng-sdk/src/main/java/org/apache/flume/api/FailoverRpcClient.java
<https://reviews.apache.org/r/4380/#comment14090>

    Please add it to the top javadoc with explanation of how this property 
works. Also, perhaps better called max-attempts.
    
    In general, I suggest that these property names be defined at the top as 
constants that are then referenced within the code. For example:
    
    public static final String CONFIG_MAX_ATTEMPTS = "max-attempts";

    Please log the exception.

    What is the reason for catching this exception differently? Seems redundant.



flume-ng-sdk/src/main/java/org/apache/flume/api/FailoverRpcClient.java
<https://reviews.apache.org/r/4380/#comment14095>

    Please log the exception. Ex:
    logger.error("...", e2);
    



flume-ng-sdk/src/main/java/org/apache/flume/api/FailoverRpcClient.java
<https://reviews.apache.org/r/4380/#comment14096>

    Looks like there is an off-by-one problem here. If the last try was 
successful, the exception will be still raised.



flume-ng-sdk/src/main/java/org/apache/flume/api/FailoverRpcClient.java
<https://reviews.apache.org/r/4380/#comment14099>

    Please log the exception.



flume-ng-sdk/src/main/java/org/apache/flume/api/FailoverRpcClient.java
<https://reviews.apache.org/r/4380/#comment14098>

    This should be catching java.lang.Exception instead of FlumeException. 
Otherwise you risk breaking the failover logic.



flume-ng-sdk/src/main/java/org/apache/flume/api/FailoverRpcClient.java
<https://reviews.apache.org/r/4380/#comment14100>

    log the exception.

<https://reviews.apache.org/r/4380/#comment14102>

    What is the purpose of this?



flume-ng-sdk/src/main/java/org/apache/flume/api/NettyAvroRpcClient.java
<https://reviews.apache.org/r/4380/#comment14103>

    Please log the exception.



flume-ng-sdk/src/main/java/org/apache/flume/api/NettyAvroRpcClient.java
<https://reviews.apache.org/r/4380/#comment14104>

    log the exception.



flume-ng-sdk/src/main/java/org/apache/flume/api/NettyAvroRpcClient.java
<https://reviews.apache.org/r/4380/#comment14105>

    log the exception.

    Alternatively you could cast the client instance to RpcClient and invoke 
the configure(properties) method on it directly.

bq.  Summary
bq.  -------
bq.  
bq.  Submitting an initial cut of FailoverRpcClient that uses the 
NettyRpcClient under the hood. In this version, host selection is not exactly 
the best, please make suggestions on how to improve it. As of now, the first 
version will not have a backoff mechanism to not retry a host for a fixed time 
etc(as discussed in the jira). I will add unit tests soon.
bq.  
bq.  Note that the actual "connect" call to a host is hidden from the 
FailoverClient (by the Netty client or any other implementation, which we may 
choose to use later). Since this connect call is hidden, failure to create a 
client(the build function throwing an exception) is not being considered a 
failure. Only a failure to append is considered a failure, and counted towards 
the maximum number of tries. In other words, as far as the FailoverClient(for 
that matter, any implementation of RpcClient interface) would consider an 
append failure as failure, not a failure to a build() call - if we want to make 
sure that a connect failure also is counted, we should move the connect call to 
the append function and keep track of the connection state internally, and not 
expect any code depending on an implementation of RpcClient(including other 
clients which depend on pre-existing clients) to know that a build call also 
creates a connection - this is exactly like a socket implementation, creating a 
new socket does not initialize a connection, it is done explicitly.
