Hi All,

I have configured unsecured 3 node nifi cluster setup using below link.

https://pierrevillard.com/2016/08/13/apache-nifi-1-0-0-cluster-setup/

Without any issues now all the instances are up.

Kindly share the some test cases to validate my NIFI cluster settings.

Not sure exactly what you are looking for.

- Verify you can access the NIFi UI from any one of your nodes URLs.

- Verify the UI shows 3/3 connected nodes.

- Verify you can add components to the canvas (processors and connections)

- Verify you can add controller services and reporting tasks.

- Go into "cluster" UI and manually disconnect the "cluster coordinator" and/or " primary node". Make sure that a new node(s) is assigned these roles.

- From "Cluster" UI make sure you can reconnect a disconnected node.

Since your NiFi cluster is running unsecured there isn't much more to validate from an administration standpoint.

- You don't have node to node mutual authentication to worry about

- You don't have user authentication or authorization to worry about.

Dataflows are built in a cluster the same way they are built in a standalone NiFi installation. Just keep in mind that every node in your cluster runs its own copy of the dataflow and works on its own set of FlowFiles.

Thanks,

Matt
