Brock Noland commented on FLUME-2351: ------------------------------------- Generally I think this is ok. I don't see it documented in the flume-ng command? Also the link to RB is wrong. > Ability to override any parameter from the configuration file > ------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: FLUME-2351 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-2351 > Project: Flume > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Node > Affects Versions: v1.5.0 > Reporter: Krisztian Horvath > Priority: Minor > Labels: features, patch > Fix For: v1.5.0 > > Attachments: FLUME-2351.patch > > > To start flume agents dynamically it comes handy to be able to override > parameters of a base configuration file without actually touching and > modifying it, for example change the bind port. > Example: > agent.sources.avro-collection-source.bind = localhost > agent.sources.avro-collection-source.port = 50000 > agent.sinks.hdfs-sink.hdfs.path = hdfs://localhost:9000/flume > agent.channels.memoryChannel.capacity = 20000 > flume-ng agent -n agent -f flume.conf > -o avro-collection-source.bind=0.0.0.0 > -o avro-collection-source.port=30000 > -o hdfs-sink.hdfs.path=hdfs://localhost:9000/data > -o memoryChannel.capacity=30000 -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
