devs, Thank you for the comments.
NIFI-3434 has been raised and submitted as PR#1472. The commit introduces generateArchives (default and [hopefully] mimicking current behavior) and dir-only (skipping the archive generation). Once again thank you for your comments. On Fri, Feb 3, 2017 at 10:34 AM, Andy LoPresto <[email protected]> wrote: > +1 to Russell’s point and thanks Andre for bringing up the topic.
