Ok, I've added hdfs.fileType = datastream and sink.serializer =
header_and_text. But I'm still seeing the logs written in sequence
format. Any ideas?

Well you are writing a sequence file (default) Is that what you want?
If you want text use:
hdfs.fileType = datastream
and for the serializer you should be able to just use:
a1.sinks.k1.sink.serializer = header_and_text

Thanks for the tip! I was indeed missing the interceptors. I've
added them now but the timestamp and hostname is still not showing
up in the hdfs log. Any advice?

But I'm still not getting timestamp information. How would I
get hostname and timestamp information in the logs?

Greetings,
I'm running flume that's shipped with Hortonworks HDP2 to
feed syslogs to hdfs. The problem is the timestamp and
hostname of the event is not logged to hdfs.

How do I configure the sink to add hostname and timestamp
