Hopefully a combination of this email thread and official documentation should be enough for your client to give the AV exemptions you need. Getting information added to the documentation is simple in one aspect as ticket just has to be raised on the ASF Nifi JIRA. However, given that large elements of Nifi are configurable via plugins it would be difficult to give definitive advise, as different plugins will have different AV requirements. In the meantime I have created NIFI-6553<https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-6553> to look at improving the documentation around this as we are missing other bits of information like SELinux configuration that I think would also be useful to have in the documentation Edward On Tue, Aug 13, 2019 at 7:31 PM Jason Csencsits <jcsencs...@technicallycreative.com<mailto:jcsencs...@technicallycreative.com>> wrote: Joe, Thank you for the information.

I think you'd be ok to scan this. The flowfile and content repository and provenance directories as configured should be skipped. The logs dir should be skipped. The state directory should be skipped. All else I believe would be fair game.
