Thanks Koji,

The VM ip addresses have not changed and the target URL is accessible. However, 
I am using a DNS alias which allows me to change the name if the ip changes. 
One thing that is odd is that flowfiles have moved through the 
RemoteProcessGroup successfully, but intermittently it will stop. 

I will try the 1.1.0 update to test, or wait for the 1.1.1 update. This might 
just solve my problem. 

Thanks for your advice,

Kevin

NiFi cluster

Hello Kevin,

Sorry to hear that you got bitten by the issue, I think the 'Unable to find 
remote process group with id ...' is the same one I've encountered with NiFi 
1.0.0.
The issue has been solved since 1.1.0.
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-2687

So, if you're able to upgrade the cluster to 1.1.0, you'll be able to update 
RemoteProcessGroup.
Please also note that bug fix release 1.1.1 is under voting process right now. 
It seems to be released in next few days.
I'd recommend to wait 1.1.1 if you're going to update your cluster again.

However, I remember that although I couldn't update RemoteProcessGroup due to 
NIFI-2687, NiFi was able to transfer data using RemoteProcessGroup. So, it 
seems there's another issue.

Have the VMs ip addresses (or hostnames) been changed? Is the target URL used 
by the RemoteProcessGroup still accessible?

Thanks,
Koji
