Anup,
Site-to-site doesn't work by having a port with the same name on both
machines. There have been a few people try that, so I guess that's a
fairly common misconception. Sorry about that!
On Machine A, you don't want to setup an Output Port. Instead, you want
to drag on a Remote Process Group (the 5th icon in the toolbar).
It will ask you for the URL of the instance to send to. This is the URL
of the second instance's UI - so for instance localhost:8080/nifi
Then, you can create a connection from GetFile to that
RemoteProcessGroup. It will ask which port to send data to.
If you drag the connection and it says that there are no input ports
available, you may need to right-click and choose "Refresh flow" and
wait a few seconds for it to refresh the remote instance's contents.
Then try creating the connection again.
Let us know if you still have problems.
Thanks!
-Mark

Subject: configuring site-to-site
Hi,
I am trying to perform a site to site configuration.
I am trying to do a GetFile at one site and do a PutFile in another.
What I did:
Configured NiFi in machine A and set the socket input port number and
set
secure to false in nifi.properties
- Ran the first NiFi instance in machine A
- Setup a GetFile with a input dir on machine A
- Connected it to an output port (named it XYZ)
Configured NiFi in machine B and set the socket input port number to a
different number and set secure to false in nifi.properties
- Ran the second NiFi instance in machine B
- Setup a PutFile processor with the local dir of machine B
- Connected it to an input port (named it same, XYZ )
When I run both the nifi instances I do not see the files getting
transferred. What am i missing?
