>                 Key: FLUME-629
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-629
>             Project: Flume
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Node
>    Affects Versions: v0.9.3
>            Reporter: Disabled imported user
>            Priority: Critical
>
> Single master
> agent: syslogTcp | agentE2EChain
> collector: collectorSource | collectorSink("hdfs://...")
> From reading through various logs, this is, I believe, the order of events:
> - NameNode crashed
> - This caused collector to fail writes to hdfs
> - Which in turn caused agents to start backing up and buffering on disk (correct so far)
> - WatchDog caught a crash and restarted the Flue Master
> - Eventually the DFO stops writing to disk but keeps trying to pass messages
> - ACKs continue to fail and eventually nothing is passed
> Disk space was fine throughout. We had another agent node which continued to operate normally during this period and buffered all messages as expected. Here's a snip of some of the relevant sections of log files:

> I can provide the full log files if they will be of use.
