@benimaru  It is important to understand that NiFi does not replicate active FlowFiles (objects queued in connection between NiFi processor components) across multiple nodes.  So in a five node NiFi cluster where you are load balancing FlowFiles across all nodes, each node has a unique subset of the full data received. This if node 1 goes down, the FlowFiles on node 1 will not be processed until node 1 is back up. 100% agree with @joseomjr that placing an external load balancer in front of the ListenUDP endpoint is the correct solution to ensure high availability of that endpoint across all your NiFi nodes.
