Description

We run into an error, when trying to update or import a Flow on Nifi from Registry: "No Processor with ID X belongs to this Process Group"

To reproduce the error above we save a flow into the Registry that contains a disabled processor in a sub process group:

• Process Group saved to Registry
  • Sub Process Group
    • Processor in Disabled State

It seems that a flow cannot be updated or imported anymore on Nifi side as soon as it contains a disabled processor in a sub process group.

We think this bug might be introduced by this feature implementation: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-6025
