Please advise if this doesn't capture all of the commentary or purpose of this JIRA. > Allow Provenance Repository to roll back to a previous implementation > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: NIFI-2854 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-2854 > Project: Apache NiFi > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Core Framework > Reporter: Mark Payne > Assignee: Mark Payne > Fix For: 1.2.0 > > > Currently, if we start up a new version of NiFi and the format of the Data > Provenance data has changed, we are not able to roll back to a previous > version of NiFi. If we do, NiFi will fail to read the Provenance Data and not > start up. We should instead provide the ability to write data to the > repository in such a way that old versions of the repository will still be > able to read the data, so that we can roll back -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
