Maybe shrink your provenance repo and send everything you need via:

Or via Atlas

you need to restart your servers after making the setting changes. do you have space?

@TimothySpann thanks for the update. restarted the cluster 2 weeks back after making changes.
but still, the Provenance repo is piling up. surprised to see that huge disc being filled by provenance

provenance is for every step of every flowfile in every flow.
I recommend rolling those logs

Hi Tim,
Are you recommending to role nifi provenance? could you provide more pointers?

Thanks, Tim, my whole Idea is, developers should be able to replay the message from the provenance for at least 5 days as per the requirements
I'm assuming the only solution is BUMP up the provenance storage to achieve replay capability.
please let me know your thoughts!.
