-----------------------------------
The recent version seems doesn't have this problem. When you restart agent
while writing data into a .tmp file, the file will be rolled up automatically.
> How to convert *.bz2.tmp to *.bz2 file after restating the instance

> Key: FLUME-2545
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-2545
> Project: Flume
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Sinks+Sources
> Affects Versions: 1.4.0
> Reporter: Arun Gujjar
> Priority: Critical
>
> Hi,
> Whenever we restart flume agent it creates a new HDFS file and start writing
> the data into that file. The earlier file which was created will still be
> left as *bz2.tmp and from HIVE queries we found that we were not able to read
> the data from this file.
> Here are the two questions I have .
> 1. Could you please suggest how we can convert this bz2.tmp to bz2 file?
> because we loose this data i.e. present in bz2.tmp file today.
> 2. Is there as way to configure flume to start writing the data into the
> existing bz2.tmp file instead of creating a new file?
> 3.
