I did have a question, but I got it figured out... Basically, what's required to move over to a new version with the changes that have occurred since the NiFi 0.3.0 release. If I get a chance I'll toss a Jira ticket in for a documentation update.
In the testing I went through.. I saw a canvas I couldn't access because the users.xml was missing, but the the authorizations.xml was there. I lost flowfiles (not sure what the cause was those). I'll re-read the Install Best Practice too and see if I could isolate more of the directories we put in /opt/nifi/current to someplace else. Thanks for the pointers to the docs.
