I had setup 1 flow using flow isolation from several nodes to a single collector (default port 35853). Things have been running just fine.
When I added a second flow to the same collector, not only did the second collector sink not receive any data, but the first went into ERROR state (I assume because the first flow uses a different format than the first and isn't written to deal with the second flow's format). When I moved the second flow-id to another port (35854) my data came thru which makes me believe you can't send different flow-ids to the same collector port. That would seem very odd. After all, that is the point of the flow identifier -- if I had to have a separate port for every flow id, why bother with flow names? This is cloudera cdh3u3 flume (not NG). And before you suggest moving to NG, not an option at this time. Thanks, Steve
