-----------------------------------------

I had posted an attachment on FLUME-1246 a few days back, which does the same

I believe.

> If HDFS sink starts up, but the hadoop jars aren't in the classpath, then the 
> HDFS sink doesn't fail-fast with an error. I think we should fail the 
> validation of the config file if it specifies an HDFS Sink when the hadoop 
> jars aren't in the classpath.
