Joseph Witt commented on NIFI-1045: ----------------------------------- [~puspendu.baner...@gmail.com] For the most recent case you mention that is what the 'replace' option is for. I reviewed the PR again and in my view the use cases you've outline are well served now by using PutHDFS w/FAILURE and UpdateAttribute to rename on failures or PutHDFS with replace. If you agree this will address the needs please advise and PR230 and JIRA NIFI-1045 can be marked as addressed by flow configuration. > Add "backup suffix" Conflict Resolution Strategy to PutHDFS / PutFile > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: NIFI-1045 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-1045 > Project: Apache NiFi > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Core Framework > Affects Versions: 0.3.0 > Reporter: Andre > > It would be great if we could add a "backup suffix" conflict resolution > strategy to when saving files to FS/HDFS. This would act in a similar way to > rsync's {{--backup --suffix}} > The suffix could support Language expression (similar to using > {{--suffix=`date +"%F"`}} on rsync) -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
