Generate flow file processor, can we configure the speed for Generateflowfile

dhieru — Mon, 23 Oct 2017 23:57:59 GMT

Hi All,

Thanks to this awesome community

I am trying to emulate my data sources (pfSense firewall), which sends events at 10000 events per second.

So I configured a Generate flow file processor with 2kb event coming from firewall as custom text.

Is there any way I control/set the speed of generate flow file processor?

Thanks

Dheeru

Hi @dhieru singh

You can configure the scheduling of the processor to define how data is generated (Run Schedule)

Is this what you are looking for ?

You can use the Run Schedule property on the Scheduling tab of the processor to set the interval at which it will be scheduled to run, so for 10k events per second you can set it to "100 nanos".
