Flume hdfs sink

Question

I am trying to use Flume with hdfs as sink. File is getting exported. But I want to customize the name of the output file. I am using hdfs.filePrefix property for it. It is always creating a file with FlumeData.timestamp.

Answer 1

Please paste your configuration.

I tried it and it did work.

My setting:

agent.sinks.flumeHDFS.hdfs.filePrefix = stackoverflow

and I get the expected result.
