Mingjie Lai commented on FLUME-1817:
------------------------------------

Right. Currently we can only have one monitor type, either http or ganglia, for 
flume. 

AFAIK, hdfs always provide metrics through http, so ppl can always use curl to 
query any metrics. In the meanwhile, users can configure to enable ganglia, or 
jmx in addition. 
                
> Monitoring configuration should be done in the config file and not per jvm 
> switches (-D atm)

> We have no possibility to add more as one monitoring service to flume. In 
> some cases it could be helpful to have more as one monitoring system (jmx and 
> ganglia or nagios as example). 
> We should move the monitoring configuration into the config file, 
> configurable per identifier:
> Example:
> monitoring1.service.name=ganglia
> monitoring1.host.name=FQDN
> monitoring1.host.port=PORT
> monitoring1.username=USERNAME
> monitoring1.password=PASSWORD (salted? md5'ed?)
