From my tests, path finding seems to work well:
```
[trixpan@development init.d]$ ls -l nifi
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 34 Oct 14 15:02 nifi ->
/home/trixpan/development/nifi.sh
[trixpan@development init.d]$ ls -l /home/trixpan/development/nifi.sh
lrwxrwxrwx 1 trixpan trixpan 108 Oct 14 15:01
/home/trixpan/development/nifi.sh ->
/home/trixpan/development/nifi/nifi-assembly/target/nifi-1.1.0-SNAPSHOT-bin/nifi-1.1.0-SNAPSHOT/bin/nifi.sh
[trixpan@development init.d]$ ./nifi status

> Resolve path name to nifi.sh in start script
> --------------------------------------------
>
> Key: NIFI-1710
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-1710
> Project: Apache NiFi
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Joey Frazee
> Priority: Trivial
>
> Currently if you symlink to nifi.sh the start script will not work because $0
> doesn't evaluate to the physical location and the script assumes
> bootstrap.conf is relative to the script.
> This means you can't, for example, symlink nifi.sh to /etc/init.d and use the
> respective service commands to control NiFi.
> Adding realpath or readlink to the script should fix this.
