TSB 2022-580: NiFi Processors cannot write to content repository
If the content repository disk is filled more than 50% (or any other value that is set in nifi.properties for nifi.content.repository.archive.max.usage.percentage), and if there is no data in the content repository archive, the following warning message can be found in the logs: "Unable to write flowfile content to content repository container default due to archive file size constraints; waiting for archive cleanup". This would block the processors and no more data is processed.

This appears to only happen if there is already data in the content repository on startup that needs to be archived, or if the following message is logged: “Found unknown file XYZ in the File System Repository; archiving file”.
