Hi,

I have a question regarding Oozie, I am running a Oozie workflow , which
does a simple distcp and then runs a MR job.

It works just fine as expected. The question is that every action is
transformed into a MR job and the actual action specified in the workflow
is then fired from within the MR job (actually a Map only job) that Oozie
has created.

Example - my MR job is getting triggered from within the Map only job  that
oozie is creating and submitting to the cluster.

Why is this? Cann't the oozie server perform the individual actions itself
without wrapping it in a M only job, or is it just of off load the oozie
server?

Thanks,
Rahul
