Robert,

I want to clarify something here:

> RC 2 is the candidate which was released, so your version is effectively 1.9.2

On a technical level this is true, but even if you have been
authorized to deploy 1.9.2 that authorization would not extend to RC2.
In such a case, it would be advisable to treat it was an unauthorized
software deployment and remediate through the proper channels.

Re: NIFI version 1.9.2-RC2 (UNCLASSIFIED)

[Andy LoPresto]

Hi Robert, 

The “-RC2” part of the version number indicates the release candidate of the 
version. In this case, RC 2 is the candidate which was released, so your 
version is effectively 1.9.2. The documentation hosted on our website changes 
for the main guides with each version, but previous versions of specific 
component documentation is maintained for some time (e.g. UpdateAttribute 1.9.2 
[1]). However, all of the documentation for the specific version you are using 
is always bundled with the application. To access it, from the main canvas view 
use the global menu in the top right corner and select “Help” for access to all 
the guides and component documentation, or right click on any processor on the 
canvas and select “Usage” to see that specific documentation. 

I am curious as to how & why you are using a release candidate of the software. 
Did you compile the binaries yourself from source code you checked out, or did 
you retrieve the “released” source code and convenience binaries from our 
downloads page [2]? The version you are referencing is over a year old, so I 
would encourage you to upgrade and use a formally released version if possible.

NIFI version 1.9.2-RC2 (UNCLASSIFIED)

[Moore, Robert W CTR (USA)]

CLASSIFICATION: UNCLASSIFIED

 

Good Afternoon,

 

My version of Apache NIFI is version 1.9.2-RC2

 

I cannot find a user/admin document for that version. Is it possible for you
to send me a PDF copy? I am new to using NIFI and I am getting configuration
errors that I cannot fix. Thanks in advance

 

If you are not the POC for this request, please forward to someone who can
help me.
