https://github.com/apache/nifi/pull/2073
To verify this fix:
1. modify the `conf/bootstrap.conf` file to provide a *master encryption
key* (it doesn't matter if any `conf/nifi.properties` values are encrypted with
it, the mere presence will trigger the relevant code)
1. Start NiFi as normal (i.e. `$ ./bin/nifi.sh start`)
1. Verify that NiFi starts (UI, `nifi-bootstrap.log`, `nifi-app.log`, etc.)
1. Identify the NiFi process (*not* the bootstrap process) and kill it
(imitating an `OOME` or external process killing NiFi)
* `ps -ef | grep nifi` to get the PID
* `kill -9 <pid>`
1. Verify that NiFi successfully restarts
The `logs/nifi-bootstrap.log` will look like this:
