Flume - Polling of data continuously

avatar
Rising Star

Hello,

I have installed and configured a websocket-type source on Flume.

It works fine...except that the data is retrieved just once (only when we start the Flume agent), and not continuously !

Is there any particular parameter to setup in order to get Flume continuously retrieving some data feed ?

thanks in advance.

Hello,

Actually I've fixed the issue; I have corrected the Source agent in order to re-establish the connection in case of connection cut triggered by the provider of data.

Can you provide the details of the websocket-type source? Perhaps also provide the agent configuration too.

Hi @Laurent lau,

could you please provide further information how you solved it? What configuration you used, what parameters you set for source agent? What websocket plugin you used? I am struggling with the same issue, but I probably use different implementation (different websocket plugin), so the configuration parameters will be most probably different..

Hello,

To fix this issue, I used to stop/start the Flume process on a daily basis.

Recently we have migrated from Flume to NiFi; much more stable.
