[jira] [Commented] (NIFI-3698) Create SSH Processor

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-3698?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16739794#comment-16739794 ] 

Anthony Mastrean commented on NIFI-3698:
----------------------------------------

I was _just_ beginning to explore using Apache Nifi for network device management and this is a major missing feature. Trying to use the ExecuteProcessor to run SSH commands is actually extremely difficult. Ditto the Groovy "solution" (I don't have the bandwidth to learn Nifi generally and Groovy specifically). I see that the [linked PR|https://github.com/apache/nifi/pull/2814#issuecomment-402855171] is closed and the author indicates that they'll be opening smaller PRs, but I'm not seeing linked tickets/PRs or any relevant open branches.

> We need an ssh processor built in for running external commands on remote servers. Currently, groovy offers a way to do this. It should be implemented into NiFi.
