Aldrin Piri commented on MINIFI-425:
------------------------------------
[~saulo] That's some interesting information. That would explain how the
repositories grew so large as when the FlowFileRepo gets corrupted (through
disk exhaustion) the pointers to the files can get lost. How did the disk
space issue get remedied? Were there any issues with transmittal or anything
else that caused the instance to retain data? As a bit of context, the content
repository is a largely transient store of data with management similar to how
the JVM performs garbage collection. Once those contents are fully through the
flow and terminated, they should be cleaned up by the system.

> Key: MINIFI-425
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MINIFI-425
> Project: Apache NiFi MiNiFi
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 0.3.0
> Reporter: Saulo Sobreiro
> Priority: Major
> Attachments: config.yml, minifi-app.log, minifi-bootstrap.log,
> minifi-bootstrap_2018-01-10.log
>
>
> *Problem:*
> I found 2 problems in this my MiNiFi-NiFi setup:
> - The first is related to my MiNiFi ./content_repository. This path is using
> around 120GB of disk space, which is far more than I can afford for this
> application;
> - The second is related to the solution I tried to the previous problem. I
> tried to configure the MiNiFi nifi.properties with the following values:
> ´´´
> nifi.content.repository.archive.max.retention.period=6 hours
> nifi.content.repository.archive.max.usage.percentage=5%
> ´´´
> However, when I restart MiNiFi this instance for it to use the new
> properties, I noticed that it overwrites my nifi.properties file with some
> default values erasing the new values.
>
> *Versions in use:*
> NiFi - version 1.2.0 installed with HDF (3.0.2.0-76)
> MiNiFi - version 0.3.0 (transfered from
> [http://mirrors.up.pt/pub/apache/nifi/minifi/0.3.0/minifi-0.3.0-bin.tar.gz])
> NiFi OS - RHEL 7.4
> MiNiFi OS - RHEL 7.2
>
> *config.yml*
> The config.yml file can be found attached. It is the version used in
> production after replacing some information like URLs.
