Juhani Connolly commented on FLUME-1479:
----------------------------------------
Multiple sinks pulling from the same channels is allowed behavior. While using
some form of grouping(failover/loadbalancing) is generally recommended, if
people have a usecase that requires multiple sinks to pull from the same
channel, it is entirely valid, and so long as the channel is a consistent one,
at least one of the sinks will get a copy of any event that passes into it.
> Multiple Sinks can connect to single Channel
