Joey Frazee commented on NIFI-8669: ----------------------------------- [~aprakash] What JVMs does this happen on? AFAICT, java.util.UUID#nameUUIDFromBytes gets used where this matters which suggests it's not a NiFi problem. > Invalid UUIDs generated > ----------------------- > > Key: NIFI-8669 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-8669 > Project: Apache NiFi > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Core Framework > Affects Versions: 1.13.2 > Reporter: Arun Prakash > Priority: Major > Original Estimate: 24h > Remaining Estimate: 24h > > The UUIDs generated (type 3) are not fully compliant to the RFC. > For instance: > {code:java} > 9adabada-3b4b-32eb-fd7e-c41191eefa2a > 642ff728-2fb3-3e6b-f48f-0cfb94b772e2 {code} > {{generated by NiFi as _id_ for components are based on type 3. For type 3, > 4, and 5, the *UUID variant* has to be one of (8, 9, a, b)}} > *Example A:* > 9adabada-3b4b-*3*2eb-*f*d7e-c41191eefa2a > This is a *uuid v3*, and variant character is *{{f}}*, and *{{f}}* is not a > valid uuid variant (just 8, 9, a and b are valid). *NOT VALID* -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
