      Submit a feed

      <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
      <feed name="rawEmailFeed" description="Raw customer email feed" xmlns="uri:falcon:feed:0.1">
          <tags>externalSystem=USWestEmailServers</tags>

          <clusters>
              <cluster name="primaryCluster" type="source">
                  <validity start="2015-10-30T01:00Z" end="2015-10-30T10:00Z"/>
                  <retention limit="days(90)" action="delete"/>
              </cluster>
          </clusters>
          <locations>
              <location type="data" path="/user/ambari-qa/falcon/demo/primary/input/enron/${YEAR}-${MONTH}-${DAY}-${HOUR}"/>
              <location type="stats" path="/tmp"/>
              <location type="meta" path="/tmp"/>
          </locations>
          <ACL owner="ambari-qa" group="users" permission="0x755"/>
          <schema location="/none" provider="/none"/>
      </feed>
      

      Notice how "stats" and "meta" does not have time pattern. Both stats and meta location are optional, and if they dont have timed pattern - it should not lead to failure in feed eviction. But feed eviction fails with following error.
