I'm planning on implementing a tiered Flume setup with a master Flume agent to use Kafka Source and then transform the events via Morphlines to write to another Kafka Channel without any Sink. The Kafka Channel of the master Flume will be then used as a source for other downstream Flume agents to write to File channel and then to HDFS sink.
Is it valid to configure a Flume agent without any sink? Thanks!
