Using NiFi to load data from localFS to HDFS

[#1]

I'm trying to load a csv from a 'local FS' into HDFS using NiFi. But I can't seem to figure out what I'm doing wrong.

Based on this thread from @Matt Clarke-

I've configured the GetFile and PutHDFS procs as shown-

And here's the file system-

I feel like there's something simple I'm missing, but I'm struggling with it nonetheless. Can anyone spot where I've gone wrong?

Are your files still in the source directory? GetFile defaults to removing the files you specify, so if something went wrong you might not have those files anymore, you'd need to set Keep Source File to true in that case (as Matt Clarke recommended). That's why the recommended option is ListFile->FetchFile, as it will keep track of the files it's seen and not fetch those again.
