No sir. When I run from the command line - I encapsulate script-specific
command sequences in  code triggered by SCRIPT var value, and NiFi
sequences encapsulated within NIFI var values - it runs in a Python
environment. I attempted jython -V at the command line, and it was unable
to find an installation of jython independent of that which comes embedded
in NiFi 0.7.1.c.

Assuming that I am operating in a Jython 2.7.0 environment when in NiFi,
are there specific libraries or packages I should import to get it to
recognize what seem to be very fundamental os package commands? Is it
possible to override the use of the jython packages that I suspect are
missing, and force it to use the python packages that I know are there?

If I must abandon os.statvfs to get this to work in NiFi, have you seen
anyone harvest disk usage information from any native NiFi processors? My
thinking is this: if I can't climb the Jython mountain, maybe I can precede
my ExecuteScript processor with something that does this check in advance.
I would then rip these calls out of my python script (NIFI sections).
