Passing parameters to MapReduce through Oozie

[Shailesh Samudrala]

Hello,

I am trying to pass parameters to my MapReduce job from Oozie MapReduce
action. Here's how I'm declaring the parameters in Oozie workflow.xml:

<property>
     <name>param1</name>
     <value>paramValue</value>
</property>


However, I'm not sure if this is the right way. Even if it is, I don't know
how to access those parameters from within my Map-Reduce job.

I tried

configuration.get("param1");

but, it doesn't work.

I would really appreciate some advise on this.

Thank you!

Regards,

Shailesh
