Flume without agents on web server

avatar
Contributor

I am new to Flume and I want to use Flume to push the web server and application server logs into HDFS (these servers not part of Hadoop cluster). Is it mandatory to install Flume agent (client) on these servers? Can I pull logs from these servers to HDFS without installing Flume agents on them?
