@jtstorck that is correct, the Process Group will reach out to the flow
registry to check for changes every so often. So if you have two Process Groups
referencing the same flow, it is expected to behave as described. I can
understand how this may be a bit confusing, though. We could have NiFi
automatically check for any Process Groups that reference the same flow when a
new version is pushed to the registry and at that point update its status.
However, I do believe that this should be created as a separate JIRA rather
than holding up this one, since it is not a functional problem. Do you agree?
