We have multiple people working is separate distinct processor groups under a common NiFi instance. As would be expected, they are often making changes to their processor group workflows concurrently.
There are long periods of time where Betty loses any attempted changes including reposition of processors, configuration changes, etc because Timmy has made changes in his processor group. The system prompts Betty with a synchronization alert message, and when she then closes that pop up alert her changes are gone. The message posted to Betty in such circumstances is: "This NiFi instance has been updated by 'SMITH TIMMY. Please refresh to synchronize the view." Two related questions: 1. why are the changes in a Processor Group impacting the other when there are no dependencies other than the services each may use? 2. Is it possible to avoid this with a configuration change? 3. does Timmy have to be fired because he keeps getting in Betty's way? -Jim (yes, Timmy)
