             Summary: Validate the configured remote input hostname
                 Key: NIFI-2944
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-2944
             Project: Apache NiFi
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 1.0.0
            Reporter: Joseph Percivall
            Priority: Minor


Currently NiFi doesn't do any validation on what is set for 
"nifi.remote.input.host". For example, I ran across 1 node cluster configured 
with a remote input hostname that started with a "http:// ...". This cluster 
started up and everything seemed fine on it's end but on the client side it 
failed.

After the initial connection it received "http:// ..." as the hostname for it 
to connect to causing UnknownHostExceptions.

NiFi should validate that the value set for the remote input host is valid in 
order to avoid this issue.

Example:
