Joe Witt commented on NIFI-10258:
---------------------------------
[~cdeepakreddy20] You'll need to determine what the best course of action is to
meet your systems requirements/obligations. But NiFi cannot have an external
process injecting itself into its file handling operations for its repositories
or we cannot reason over what the result would be. I would disable such virus
scanning for the flowfile, content, and provenance repositories as well as the
log directory and h2-database directory. Given the information you've shared
so far this is likely the problem and the solution to it.
If you have data going through the flow which you're concerned about from a
virus scanning point of view it is perfectly fine and often done that a
processor in the flow would stream the content to a virus scanning endpoint and
identify whether any hits are present. I have no specific guidance to share on
that but it has been done by many and is pretty powerful. This is a little
different than the above paragraph about disable live scanning of these various
locations but wanted to mention this.
Thanks
