Known Issues in Apache Oozie
This topic describes known issues and unsupported features for using Oozie in this release of Cloudera Runtime.
- Oozie's limited Knox support
-
By default, Oozie does not work on a Knox enabled cluster as Knox is unable to replace the resource-manager property for Oozie.
- Oozie jobs fail (gracefully) on secure YARN clusters when JobHistory server is down
-
If the JobHistory server is down on a YARN (MRv2) cluster, Oozie attempts to submit a job, by default, three times. If the job fails, Oozie automatically puts the workflow in a
SUSPEND
state.
- Unsupported Feature
-
The following Oozie features are currently not supported in Cloudera Data Platform:
- Non-support for Pig action (CDPD-1070)
- Conditional coordinator input logic
Cloudera does not support using Derby database with Oozie. You can use it for testing or debugging purposes, but Cloudera does not recommend using it in production environments. This could cause failures while upgrading from CDH to CDP.
