>             Project: Oozie
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: workflow
>    Affects Versions: 3.3.0
>            Reporter: Maxime Petazzoni
>             Fix For: trunk

>
> With the current kill node, ending a workflow in the KILLED state, it is 
> impossible from a monitoring standpoint to differentiate between a workflow 
> that was killed by the command-line from a workflow that died in error 
> because one of its node jumped to the kill node.
> I think it would make more sense to use the FAILED state better and change 
> the kill node to a fail node, yielding the FAILED state for the workflow when 
> the fail node is reached.
> The same discussion actually arises for the use of the FAILED state. I'm not 
> sure what the FAILED state is used for right now though.
> Changing the name of the kill node to "fail" also means it's not a backward 
> compatible change (we can make the kill node through a FAILED state during a 
> given deprecation period though).
> Discussion is open; I can be on the hook for the actual implementation once 
> we have an agreement on the path to follow on this one.
