Pallavi Rao commented on FALCON-1313:
-------------------------------------
[~peeyushb], the primary problem with any notification from Falcon is that it
will not be reliable. Users would generally want to know when there are
failures (rather than success). And, in case of failures, the notification may
not get generated at all (either via oozie) or for that matter via JMS
notifications.
If you add the email notification as part of post-process, the user action may
succeed, but, post-process may fail.
If you listen to JMS notifications that are generated now, even there, JMS
notifications may not generated because the post-processing failed.
So, at best, what we are guaranteeing is SUCCESS notifications in case of
"Success" which can be achieved using oozie email action. But, lack of
notification, MAY, but not necessarily (when post-processing fails), mean a
failure.
I think we need to be able to reliably determine the status of a
workflow/action before we bring in this feature.
