Submit Dialog Parameters
The Submit tab opens a dialog box that allows you to submit a workflow, a coordinator, or a bundle definition as a job. Once submitted, a job displays in the Workflow Manager dashboard.
Table 7.46. Submit Dialog, Configuration Parameters
| Parameter Name | Description | Additional Information | Example |
|---|---|---|---|
| Workflow Path | The HDFS location in which the workflow definition is stored. | /user/ambari-qa/ooziewfs/sqoop/workflow.xml | |
| Overwrite | When selected, if a file with the same name exists in the path, it is overwritten on submit. | If a file of the same name exists in the path and is not overwritten, you must change the file name or you get an error. | |
| Run on Submit | When selected, the job will run when it is submitted. | If not selected, a submitted job displays in the WFM dashboard with status Prep, and the job must be started manually. | |
| Use system lib path | When selected, allows WFM (Oozie) to use the libraries in the sharelib path. | Refer to HDFS Share Libraries for Workflow Applications for more information. | |
| Rerun on Failure | When selected, allows WFM to automatically rerun failed jobs. | This sets oozie.wf.rerun.failnodes=true in the configuration submitted to Oozie. | |
| Job Properties | Displays the actual names of the resource manager and name node being used for the job. |
ResourceManager example: cluster-5-companyname.com:8050 NameNode example: hdfs://cluster-5-companyname.com:8020 | |
| Custom Job Properties | Provides key/value pair properties that are sent to Oozie when the job is submitted. | Allows you to override or supplement job property values set in a job.xml or in the Configuration section of the Action Settings dialog. For example, if a coordinator contains a workflow path with a variable (/user/${user}/workflow.xml), rather than an absolute path, WFM would not be able to determine the variable to be passed. In this case, you could provide the variable as a custom property. |
