--------------------------------
Summary: Provide option to "Create Diagnostics Report" or "Run
Diagnostics" for a processor
Key: NIFI-4525
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-4525
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: Core Framework, Core UI, Documentation & Website
Reporter: Mark Payne
Assignee: Mark Payne
Often times when a user indicates that they are having problems with a given
processor, such as 'this processor is stuck', or 'this processor is running but
isn't doing anything' there are a lot of the same steps that we go through to
try to troubleshoot what is going wrong. For instance, we will ask about
Connection Backpressure; scheduling configuration; configured properties, etc.
If threads are stuck, we may ask for a thread dump. Or several sequential
thread dumps. This can take a lot of time back-and-forth between users and the
NiFi community to trouble to troubleshoot/diagnose the issues. It would be
useful if users had the ability to click on a processor and choose to create a
diagnostic report that would include all of the information that is typically
requested. That could then be provided to mailing lists, JIRA's, etc. to help
diagnose and recreate the problems.
