[jira] [Commented] (FLUME-1946) Tolerate disk failure in
FileChannel
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-1946?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13778300#comment-13778300 ]
Hari Shreedharan commented on FLUME-1946:
-----------------------------------------
I am planning to start looking into this. I intend to do:
* New format for the channel, with sync marker support
* Mirror the events on write.
I am thinking about working on a one-pager to come up with a requirements spec.

> It would be great to investigate changes to the FileChannel that enable it to tolerate failure of one or more disks in a group of data directories across disks without losing data. This involves implementing support for some form of mirroring at the software level, as well as appropriate recovery routines.
