In Chukwa Chunk data structure, we have a meta data field called tags, which 
allows Chukwa agent/adaptor to inject data into this field.

We currently put cluster="" into the tag field in Chukwa Agent.  It is possible 
to add a tag for Chukwa adaptor to send over the timestamp.

I implemented a simple Socket program to listen to the collector on 9094
port, so that I can process that information further (using the
SocketTeeWriter).

I used this type of a command to tap into my specific data type :

HEADER datatype=SysOut*\n

I was able to get the chunk as RAW data. But it didn't have any information
about the time stamp which would be used while persisting in HDFS/HBase. Is
it possible to send the time stamp information of the chunk in the header ?
{ I am basically wondering about data consistency if I persist this
information else where apart from HDFS .. }

Cheers, DKN
