Virag Kothari commented on OOZIE-865:
-------------------------------------
JBPM does not recommend unequal fork/join pairs. The current fork/join
validation follows it. Also, if we allow unequal fork/join pairing, then we
need to account for other cases. So I think fork/join should always be in pair.
> ForkJoin validator checks total lengths of forks vs. joins instead of actual
> paths

> Project: Oozie
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 3.2.0
> Reporter: Harsh J
> Assignee: Robert Kanter

>
> Consider a WF that has four fork paths, each to a decision node, and each of
> these eventually in their further paths end at a single join node (thereby
> resulting in a valid DAG).
> When such a WF is passed to Oozie and fork join validator is enabled, the
> validation fails cause the numForks(4) > numJoins(1). This naive way appears
> to be wrong to compare, and we should ideally only compare true path based
> forks->joins lists, if possible.
> This causes a regression if the fork join validation is left enabled.
> Workaround for such workflows currently is to disable fork join validation
> via {{oozie.validate.ForkJoin}} set to {{false}} at the server.
