jay vyas commented on OOZIE-1695:
---------------------------------

Good point, so  is it possible to support the "name-node" "job-tracker" 
semantics for backward compatibility and still eliminate them as requirements?  

I think they are  confusing, even HDFS users - because they give HDFS users the 
impression that , for example, they can't port their workflows to MR2, or to 
other file systems.

> The dizzying OOZIE-426 JIRA indicates that at the moment it is not clear 
> wether oozie does, or doesn't, support any HCFS file system. 
> - the good news is, after some digging : It does !
> So we have two tasks, mostly documentation i guess, but possibly some 
> modifications in code/comments would be nice as well to clarify things 
> further for developers:
> - So now we need to all agree on and document the "right" way to add file 
> system plugins into Oozie.  Hopefully we can do so using semantics which is 
> not dependant on HDFS/S3 to avoid confusion.  
> - In addition, Some clarity on why and how the "nameNode" parameter   is 
> enforced as part of the XML schema for java tasks should also be clarified.  
> Clearly that is a bug since oozie supports non-HDFS deployments.  
> Specifically, it appears that in the 
> http://oozie.apache.org/docs/3.2.0-incubating/WorkflowFunctionalSpec.html  
> "The java action has to be configured with the job-tracker, name-node, main 
> Java class, JVM options and arguments.".....
