Flume安装和实时读取HIVE的日志

一、解压tar包

二、配置环境变量

1、Flume安装在Hadoop集群中

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun

2、Flume安装在了Hadoop集群中，配置HA

#export JAVA_HOME=
还需要把Hadoop中的core-site.xml hdfs-site.xml 拷贝到Flume的conf目录下。

3、没有安装在集群中

export JAVA_HOME=

还需要把Hadoop中的core-site.xml hdfs-site.xml 拷贝到Flume的conf目录下。
还需要把Hadoop中相关的jar包拷贝到Flume的lib下。

三、操作命令

将日志文件存放在HDFS中的案例

flume-hdfs.properties的配置文件的内容为：

# The configuration file needs to define the sources, 
# the channels and the sinks.
# Sources, channels and sinks are defined per a1, 
# in this case called 'a1'

a1.sources = s1
a1.channels = c1
a1.sinks = k1

# For each one of the sources, the type is defined
a1.sources.s1.type = exec
a1.sources.s1.command=tail -f /opt/app/hive-0.13.1-cdh5.3.6/logs/hive.log
a1.sources.s1.hdfs.filePrefix


# The channel can be defined as follows.
a1.sources.s1.channels = c1

# Each sink's type must be defined
a1.sinks.k1.type = hdfs
a1.sinks.k1.hdfs.path=/hive/log
a1.sinks.k1.hdfs.filePrefix=hive-log/part/date-%Y-%m-%d
a1.sinks.k1.hdfs.rollSize=102400
a1.sinks.k1.hdfs.rollInterval=0
a1.sinks.k1.hdfs.rollCount=0
a1.sinks.k1.hdfs.useLocalTimeStamp=true


#Specify the channel the sink should use
a1.sinks.k1.channel = c1

# Each channel's type is defined.
a1.channels.c1.type = memory

# Other config values specific to each type of channel(sink or source)
# can be defined as well
# In this case, it specifies the capacity of the memory channel
a1.channels.c1.capacity = 100
#a1.channels.c1.checkpointDir =/opt/datas/flume/file/check
#a1.channels.c1.dataDirs =/opt/datas/flume/file/data

然后在flume中运行下面这段代码：

 bin/flume-ng agent --conf conf/ --name a1 --conf-file conf/flume-mem.propertities -Dflume.root.logger=INFO,console

最后在HDFS中查看文件：
