Allow multiplexing channel selector to specify optional channels.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Key: FLUME-946
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-946
Project: Flume
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Arvind Prabhakar
Right now the multiplexing channel selector treats all channels as required
channels. There should be a simple provision where some channel can be marked
optional so that a failure in publishing the event to that particular channel
does not cause the entire request to fail. For example, the following
configuration:
agent.sources.foo.selector.mapping.foo = ch1 ch2
agent.sources.foo.selector.mapping.bar = ch2 ch3
agent.sources.foo.selector.optional.channels = ch2
Would imply that for mapping value "foo", ch1 is a required channel whereas ch2
is an optional channel. Similarly, for mapping "bar', ch3 is a required channel
but ch2 is optional.
