> From mailing list:
> I've successfully tested Variable Registries in the *Replacement Value*
> field, but I still can't get it to work in the *Search Value* field with
> *Replacement Strategy* as Literal Replace and *Evaluation* as Entire Text.
>
> Here is something really weird. I created a GenerateFlowFile and used my
> ${tier1.linux} variable in the *Custom Text* field. Creates the flow file as
> expected, with the expected text. But then in my ReplaceText's *Search Value*
> field I use my ${tier1.linux} variable with *Replacement* being anything, and
> it +does not+ ** successfully search and replace the text. Thoughts?

> should still work)
> Unique FlowFiles: false
> Custom Text: ${tier1.linux}
> Character Set: UTF-8
> Mime Type: No value set
