Hey Josef, So a few questions to help figure out what's going on here:
- What is the Load Balance Strategy in use? (I.e., Round Robin, Partition by Attribute, etc.) - What compression is being used (None, Compress Attributes Only, Compress Contents and Attributes) - How many nodes in the cluster? - Are all nodes connected? - What is the backpressure configured to? Is the source or destination of the Connection a Processor? If so, we can get a lot of info by going to http://localhost:8080/nifi-api/processors/<processor id>/diagnostics Where http://localhost:8080/ would need to be changed to wherever your nifi instance is running and <processor id> is the UUID of the Processor that is either the source or destination of the connection. You can get the UUID of the Processor by clicking on it in the UI and then looking at the 'Operate' palette on the left-hand side of the screen. If you can get the result of going to the URL, it will likely be helpful, as it shows a lot of details about the processor, as well as all of its incoming and outgoing connections.

The files stuck for multiple seconds/minutes in the queue and the light blue loadbalancing icon on the right side shows that it is actually loadbalancing the whole time (even if it is just 1 or 2 files). The log (with default log levels) show no WARN or ERRORs… Thanks in advance, Josef From: Mark Payne <marka...@hotmail.com<mailto:marka...@hotmail.com>> Reply-To: "users@nifi.apache.org<mailto:users@nifi.apache.org>" <users@nifi.apache.org<mailto:users@nifi.apache.org>> Date: Monday, 12 November 2018 at 17:19 To: "users@nifi.apache.org<mailto:users@nifi.apache.org>" <users@nifi.apache.org<mailto:users@nifi.apache.org>> Subject: Re: NiFi 1.8 and stuck flowfile in Load Balanced enabled queue Hey Dan, Have looked through the logs to see if there are any WARN or ERROR's indicating what's going on?

It seems that a flowfile is "stuck" in this queue. I've been watching it for some time now. Is there any way to trouble shoot what is stuck in the queue and why? or maybe remove it? I've tried to stop the PG and empty the queue, but always says emptied 0 out of 1 flowflies... Regards, Dano <Screen Shot 2018-11-12 at 7.00.37 AM.png>
