Thank you for looking into it.
Your analysis was right: I've accidentally put the port into the host
parameter `nifi.remote.input.socket.host=9081`.
After I've changed it, everything was working:

In my local setup, it seems that only one of my 8 parallel instances of the
source are actually reading data. I suspect that Nifi is delivering data only
to one reader.
How would that work in a cluster? How does Nifi know that all the Flink
`NifiSource`s connecting to Nifi belong to the same system?
