Processor scheduling resets on Nifi Restart

["Peter Wicks (pwicks)" <pw...@micron.com>]

We've noticed that a job we have setup to run once a day will run again in the same day if we restart NiFi (and again, and again, depending on how often we restart NiFi).
Is this by design?

Peter,

When you say that it is scheduled to run "once a day" do you mean that you are using
Timer-Driven scheduling with the scheduling period set to 24 hours? If so, then yes, that
is intentional.

If you want it to run only once a day, I would recommend that you use the CRON Driven
Scheduling Strategy and configure it to run at some specific hour each day.

Thanks
