-=== Claim Management
-
-Whenever a request is made to change the dataflow, it is important that
-all nodes in the NiFi cluster are kept in-sync. In order to allow for this, NiFi employs a two-phase commit. The request
-is first replicated to all nodes in the cluster, simply asking whether or not the request is allowed. Each node then determines
-whether or not it will allow the request and if so issues a "Claim" on the component(s) being modified. This claim can be
-thought of as a mutually-exclusive lock that is owned by the requestor. Once all nodes have voted on whether or not the request
-is allowed, the node from which the request originated must decide whether or not to complete the request. If any node voted
-'NO' then the request is canceled and the Claim is canceled with an error message sent back to the user. However, if the nodes
-all vote 'YES' then the request is completed. In this sort of distributed environment, it is possible that the node that
-made the original request will fail after the voting has occurred and before the request was completed. This would leave
-the component locked indefinitely so that no more changes can be made to the component. In order to avoid this, the Claim
-will time out after some period of time.

 NiFi depends on Apache ZooKeeper for determining which node in the cluster should play the role of Primary Node
