Round robin load balancer for collectors
Hi,
I wanted some info on whether it is possible to have a set of collectors
for a flow and make them automatically receive events on a round robin
basis. For example, If I have a set of agents and 4 agents, each agent
will start off by sending events to a random collector and then send events
to each collector in the set in round robin.
Agent 1
event 1 - Collector 4
event 2 - Collector 1
event 3 - Collector 2
event 4- Collector 3 and so on.
Thanks in advance for you help.
Thanks & Regards

We had to implement our own sink to handle that use-case.
We provided a patch as part of: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-527
