Matt Gilman commented on NIFI-520:
----------------------------------

Jenn,

What you have so far looks good. I wanted to make sure you saw the the 
enable/disable controller service process as it is also important. In order to 
modify a controller service, the DFM needs to stop/disable all referencing 
processors, reporting tasks, and controller services. Rather than having to 
hunt down each component, they can stop/disable all referencing components when 
disabling the service in question. This is part of the disable process because 
we cannot have components running that reference a disabled service. If a 
component is referencing a service, it can only become valid once all 
referenced services are enabled. Likewise, when enabling a controller service, 
the user has the option to start/enable all referencing processors, reporting 
tasks, and controller services. 

Let me know if you have any questions or if I happened to miss it in the patch.

Matt

> Now that NIFI-250 is done, the new method for adding/configuring controller 
> services and reporting tasks needs to be added to the User Guide. This will 
> go into the section on Building a Dataflow (btw configuring a processor and 
> connecting components). The section at the very end of the User Guide called 
> Other Management Features also needs to be updated. The name Flow Settings 
> has been changed to Controller Settings.
