Been Googling hard on this (NiFi docs, Horton docs, these forums,
stackoverflow) and I'm not seeing anything about specific wisdom
surrounding backing up /content_repository/ and /flowfile_repository/,
why I would, why I wouldn't, turning NiFi off when I do, etc.
I completely get the rest of the picture and have experience reproducing
a NiFi instance, including flows, making sure that flows match data
already in repositories, configuration, logs, etc. But, I was hoping to
find wisdom on the rather huge undertaking of backing up the 4
repositories, must we pause NiFi when we do it, etc.
I'm being asked for guidance by my IT staff who are ready to hop on this
question now. I've been able to give them very pointed details on
everything except the repositories.
Any sharing is welcome.
Thanks,
Russ
