Flume NG init script should pass --name "agent" instead of --name "<hostname>"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: BIGTOP-502
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-502
Project: Bigtop
Issue Type: Bug
Components: General
Affects Versions: 0.3.0
Environment: [CentOS 5.7 64-bit]
Reporter: Will McQueen
Assignee: Bruno Mahé
Priority: Critical
Fix For: 0.3.0
The /etc/init.d/flume-ng-node init script currently passes this option:
--name <hostname>
...to /usr/bin/flume-ng, but the option needs to be a constant name, "agent"
(literally, w/o quotes), like this:
--name agent
The reason is because Flume NG currently can't properly parse a dot-separated
hostname because dots are used as namepace delimiters. So instead we should
probably hardcode it to the name "agent" as the default name of the agent
(while still retaining the ability to specify a different node by specifying
the FLUME_NODE_NAME).
Thank you.
