The 'ChannelSize' metric will give you the number of events currently in the
channel. It's one of the main metrics we alert on (well ChannelFillPercentage,
actually).
Snippet from one of my nodes:
"CHANNEL.fc_WebLogs": {
"EventPutSuccessCount": "1285941800",
"ChannelFillPercentage": "1.8881",
"Type": "CHANNEL",
"EventPutAttemptCount": "1285941800",
"ChannelSize": "18881",
"StopTime": "0",
"StartTime": "1387357632600",
"EventTakeSuccessCount": "1285944090",
"ChannelCapacity": "1000000",
"EventTakeAttemptCount": "1287200957"
},
Hope that helps,

Subject: File Channel Contents
Hi
Are there any utils out there that will analyze a file channel and return
information about it? I've found the blog article here:
https://blogs.apache.org/flume/entry/apache_flume_filechannel which is very
useful and seems to suggest that I could whip up some code using FileChannel
and LogFile classes. However, it seems like this would be something that people
previously might have had a need for.
While browsing individual events would be nice, even just a reliable count of
the number of events in the queue would be hugely useful.
Thanks
