General

I'm having a hard time with the argument syntax in the catalog section of the manual. Help!

I'm new and I'm having a problem using dfs, customDfs, or escapedCustomDfs sinks.

You should use the collectorSink. It is sufficient for most users and greatly simplifies configuration. The others are "low-level" and exposed for advanced users.

Agent Side

How do I used tailDir?

Collector Side

What is a good amount of time for collector rolling?
