Good afternoon, We monitor our instance through a cron and checking its command output using service nifi status.
I can only assume that you might have external factors causing the result to not meet true. I suggest that you also send the return result to a file to inspect it closer. So if you expect "NiFi is currently running" then when it fails I would see what output was written to a file and see what is there. And alternative is to monitor it through the nifi API: https://nifi.apache.org/docs/nifi-docs/rest-api There is a GET /controller/status Or you can configure a notification service to email its status.
