patricker opened a new pull request #3655: NIFI-6559 FlowFile Repo Journal Recovery Should not Fail if External … URL: https://github.com/apache/nifi/pull/3655 …Overflow Files are Missing #### Description of PR When NiFi is journaling the FlowFile repository changes to disk it sometimes writes Overflow files if it exceeds a certain memory threshold. These files are tracked inside of the *.journal files as External File References. If one of these external file references is deleted or lost the entire journal fails to recover. Instead, I feel this should work more like FlowFile's that lose their queue, or Content in the Content Repository that has lost it's FlowFile. Log it, and move on. ### For all changes: - [x] Is there a JIRA ticket associated with this PR?
