Guys,
OK, this is what you need to do to enable Oozie impersonation of a User.
Forget about modifying oozie-site.xml. The only file I needed to modify was
core-site.xml.
Explanation:
The superuser must be configured on namenode and jobtracker to be allowed to
impersonate another user. Following configurations are required.
<property>
<name>hadoop.proxyuser.oozie.groups</name>
<value>group1,group2</value>
<description>Allow the superuser oozie to impersonate any
members of the group group1 and group2</description>
</property>
<property>
<name>hadoop.proxyuser.oozie.hosts</name>
<value>host1,host2</value>
<description>The superuser can connect only from host1 and host2
to impersonate a user</description>
</property>
If these configurations are not present, impersonation will not be allowed and
connection will fail.
I changed: group1 to Hadoop and host1 to ip-address of the node that I am
running oozie from.
Happy hadooping.
