Mike Percy commented on FLUME-981:
----------------------------------
I have addressed this issue for AvroSink in FLUME-989. Didn't look @ IRCSink
though.
> Unify sink failure behavior, throwing EventDeliveryException
> ------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLUME-981
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-981
> Project: Flume
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Sinks+Sources
> Affects Versions: v1.1.0
> Reporter: Juhani Connolly
> Fix For: v1.1.0
>
>
> With FLUME-865 committed, for failover SinkProcessor and other future
> processors to work properly, it is expected that they throw
> EventDeliveryException once they are no longer able to deliver events.
> Of course, the semantics can be changed to a different condition for
> failover, but some kind of unifiedd behavior is necessary.
> Perhaps per-sink sub-issues should be made by people interested in fixing
> individual sinks.
> Right now the following sinks never throw EventDeliveryException:
> AvroSink
> IRCSink
> Other sinks all throw it under failure scenarios.
