Rob Moran commented on NIFI-2082:
---------------------------------
[~markap14] – in a case like this do all the clustered nodes remain aware of the situation?
* Does the disconnected node know that it _should_ be part of a cluster?
* And do the remaining (connected) nodes in the cluster know that one is missing?
If these answer yes, we can call attention to the cluster icon/node count in the flow status.
The user can view a tooltip when hovering this area for details. I'd recommend doing even
more to let the user know when they try to make a change to a disconnected node, but first
want to make sure each node can be aware of what is happening.
If no, well, that is not good...
> When a node is disconnected from cluster, it should be made extremely obvious in the
UI

> Because we now have a zero-master clustering paradigm, it's possible to open the UI on
a node that is disconnected from the cluster. In this case, changes made to the UI will be
accepted, but they will not be replicated to the cluster. As a result, the flow will be out-of-sync
with the cluster, and in order to get the node back to the cluster, the changes would have
to be undone and the work potentially lost (user could create a template to save the changes
but may not know what all they changed).
> The UI should make it very obvious that the node is disconnected and that any changes
that made will not be replicated to the cluster.
