>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-6658
>             Project: Apache NiFi
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>            Reporter: Mark Payne
>            Assignee: Mark Payne
>            Priority: Major
>             Fix For: 1.10.0
>
>          Time Spent: 10m
>  Remaining Estimate: 0h

> When users run into issues, there are several different questions that we end 
> up asking very often:
>  * What version of NiFi?
>  * What does thread dump look like?
>  * What version of Java?
>  * Operating system info
>  * Disk space usage
>  * Cluster information
>  * How many open file handles are used / allowed?
> And several others that are along those same lines.
> We already have the ability for an admin to run `bin/nifi.sh dump <filename>` 
> to gather the thread dump. We should expand this capability to provide more 
> than just a thread dump and to provide the answers to these common questions, 
> so that a user can easily just obtain the diagnostic information easily with 
> a single command.
> It probably makes more sense to introduce a new command, `bin/nifi.sh 
> diagnostics <filename>` rather than just adding this to the `dump` command 
> because there are times that we need to gather several thread dumps, and we 
> don't need to gather all of this information each time. Some may already have 
> scripts, etc. that are setup to parse the thread dumps, as well.
