Project: Flume
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Node
Reporter: Prasad Mujumdar
Assignee: Prasad Mujumdar
Currently, if source or sink throws an exception, the driver bails out
resulting the everything to shut down. Alternately, we can try to close and
reopen the source or sink, and then attempt to continue. This way we can avoid
blocking the flow. If the reopen fails, then it can bail out.
