Hi Arun, Those are directories used by NiFi or its bootstrap service to store state. NiFi creates several directories and files on disk to save state while running, so it is expected the run-as-user has write access to the NiFi home directory and its sub-directories.
Hope this helps, Kevin On 9/12/18, 10:57, "Arunkumar" <arun.vc.ku...@gmail.com> wrote: Hi Folks, Just wanted to understand why nifi is creating work, state, run directories after we start (bin/nifi.sh start)? Asking this question as we have a build system, which doesn't allow us to create directories in runtime while deploying nifi. Are there any workarounds or should we add permissions for the nifi directory for the run-as-user of the environment or host? or am I missing something?
