Description

The current design of chukwa requires Chukwa Agent to monitor the file growth in order to stream data to Chukwa cluster. When there are a lot of small files, it does not make sense to ask Chukwa Agent to monitor the file for long period of time. This request is to add a special File adaptor to allow Chukwa Agent to stream small file as one time operation. One example of this type of files is JobConf xml file.
