Flume Agents - do they appear as a port in NETSTAT?

mcalnd — Fri, 16 Sep 2022 09:27:36 GMT

We have a Flume Agent running well currently...

agent1.sources.http-source.type = http
agent1.sources.http-source.port = 8989

It is doing its job, but I was interested to know why it does not display as an open/listening port via the box standard NETSTAT Linux command?

Thanks in advance!

It should definitely show up in netstat as a LISTENING port. You could also use 'lsof -iTCP:8989' to confirm if it is listening.

Thanks for the second command, this is very useful and a lot simpler to identify than netstat - Cheers!
