Alessio You have two clusters here potentially. The NiFi cluster and the Hadoop cluster. Which one went down?
If NiFi went down I'd suspect memory exhaustion issues because other resource exhaustion issues like full file system, exhausted file handles, pegged CPU, etc.. tend not to cause it to restart. If memory related you'll probably see something in the nifi-app.log. Try going with a larger heap as can be controlled in conf/bootstrap.conf.
