ASF GitHub Bot commented on NIFI-929: ------------------------------------- Github user JPercivall commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/nifi/pull/668 +1 Went through the code to verify nothing was depending referring to the pid aside from when writing/deleting. Ran contrib check build and tested using a secure cluster to verify the pid file matches the status file (as well as after restart). Thanks @bbende, I will merge it in. > Ability to generate a 'true' pid file > ------------------------------------- > > Key: NIFI-929 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-929 > Project: Apache NiFi > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Configuration > Affects Versions: 0.3.0 > Reporter: Ali Bajwa > Assignee: Bryan Bende > Priority: Minor > > The nifi pid file does not seem to be a true pid file (it has other info as > well). > For integration with monitoring tools like Ambari it would be nice to have a > true pid file (containing only the pid) created as well (in line with other > Hadoop components). This is coming from the Ambari service I put together: I > had to parse out the pid from Nifi pidfile and maintain another one -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
