Joseph Gresock updated NIFI-3411:
---------------------------------
    Attachment: Status History 2.png
                Status History 1.png

Status History 1 shows the dip in the graph, and Status History 2 shows the dip 
resolved after I refreshed the view several times.  Also note the difference in 
average cluster metrics.

> Latest "NiFi" Status History data point should only be reported when complete

> In the Status History view on a NiFi cluster, the cluster's metrics (called 
> "NiFi") are reported as a sum of the individual nodes' metrics, and appear as 
> a blue line in the graph.  
> When the view is first displayed (or at any refresh), if any of the nodes 
> have not reported back their metrics, the most recent data point is often 
> misrepresented on the NiFi cluster line as the sum of only the nodes that 
> have reported their metrics.  Since this is a line graph, the difference 
> looks jarring, and can lead to the immediate interpretation that data has 
> stopped flowing with such a large drop in the graph.  In addition, the 
> summary metrics (avg/min/max) incorporate this incomplete cluster metric.  In 
> order to get an accurate average data rate, the user has to continue to 
> refresh the graph until all nodes have reported in the latest data point.
> I understand that this isn't a trivial fix (i.e., what do you do if one of 
> the nodes genuinely is disconnected?), but it feels like this user experience 
> could be improved.
