Flume configuration files available under /usr/hdp/2.2.0.0-2041/flume/conf/conf.empty directory are read only and permissions cannot be changed on them. In order to update the Flume config properties, I need to be able to edit flume.conf file. Can you please let me know why the config file is read only ? Do I need to look at the config file in some other directory ?

To use Flume, you do not need to edit the flume.conf file. The better way to write a Flume agent is to create your own Flume config file (and save it in whatever folder you like). Then when you start the Flume agent you point it to your config file with the -f flag; for example:
flume-ng agent -n my_agent_name -c conf -f my_flume_agent.conf
