Rajmund Takacs commented on NIFI-13829:
---------------------------------------

[^MonitorActivity_testing_adv_OSS.json] can be used to reproduce the issue. You 
need to run it in a multi-node NiFi cluster.

> MonitorActivity generates false inactivity reports (with big ratio), if the 
> FlowFiles are coming less frequent, than the 2/3 of the configured threshold. 
> This happens only in cluster monitoring scope, where only primary node 
> reports, and only non-primary nodes have FlowFiles to process.
> This is because, the processor synchronizes the common state only 3 times 
> within the threshold: 1T/3, 2T/3, 3T/3. If the FlowFile hits the non-primary 
> node between the second (2T/3) and the third sync point (3T/3), then the 
> state from the non-primary node will only be shared with the primary node, 
> when the last sync point comes. And as sync points are relativeley calculated 
> by each node, there is a race condition in terms of which happens first: the 
> primary node reads the common state, or the non-primary node writes the new 
> state. In case of the former, primary node will generate a false indication.
