How to let the nifi flows edit to be applied to the primary node directly

[#1]

I am running 3 nifi nodes using AWS ECS, while the development team is working over the nifi console, we are getting an error related to the unable to sync. So the node is being disconnected.

My mind is this issue is happening due to that the changes are not being made over the primary node.

How can I enforce that the changes are applied directly to the primary node to avoid this issue?

Can any one help?

Welcome to the community.

What are the reasons being given in the NiFi elected cluster coordinator nifi-app.log for the disconnection or from the disconnected node's nifi-app.log?

No matter which NiFi node you are connected to any, change request must be sent the elected "Cluster Coordinator" that replicates that request to all connected nodes.   If any of the nodes that has been requested to make the change fails to respond in the node will get disconnected.  The elected "Primary node" is the node on which any primary only scheduled processor components will run. It is also important to understand that which node is elected as the "Primary" or "Coordinator" can change at any time.

I don't think forcing all your users on to the Primary node is going to solve your issue. 

Even with a node disconnection caused by a failure of the request replication, the disconnected node should attempt to reconnect to the node and inherit the cluster flow if is it different from the local flow on the connecting node.

You should also be looking at things like CPU load average, Heap usage, and Garbage collection stats on your primary node versus the other nodes.

Perhaps adjust max timer driven thread pool sizes or adjusting timeouts would be helpful.

How well are your dataflow designs distributing the load across all nodes in your cluster?
