[jira] [Created] (FLUME-2586) HDFS Sink should have an option to try rename even if close fails

Johny Rufus created FLUME-2586:
----------------------------------

             Summary: HDFS Sink should have an option to try rename even if close fails
                 Key: FLUME-2586
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-2586
             Project: Flume
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Johny Rufus
            Assignee: Johny Rufus


"The issue is that the file close fails, but the stream on the Flume side is considered closed by HDFS. So retrying the close, is failing - which causes the rename never to be attempted. Since the rename is never attempted the file sticks around with the ".tmp" file name. "
We should add a parameter "renameIfCloseFails", that will attempt rename even if the close fails and possibly log information that the user need to run lease recovery
