The Play icon on the Processor indicates the schedule state meaning it is currently scheduled to run. Additionally, in the upper right-hand corner of the Processor there may be a number. That number indicates the total number activate threads currently running. If there is no number, it means that the Processor is not actively running. If you're running in a clustered environment this represents the total number of active threads across the entire cluster. You can tell if a Processor is Idle if it is currently scheduled but has no active threads.

We are currently re-evaluating this scenario during the UI modernization which is happening under ticket NIFI-1323. Let us know if you have suggestions on how to make this more clear.

> Processors currently only show the green "Play" icon to indicate that they are running or the red "Stop" icon to indicate they have been stopped. It would be nice for processors that run on a schedule to have a "Pause" (or "Stopwatch" / "Clock") icon to indicate that they are running but due to the schedule currently inactive/idle.
> This would make it slightly easier to debug schedule problems and see what's happening in real-time.
