Hi Fabiano, You should definitely be able to execute multiple Oozie jobs simultaneously. The issue comes up when you have a small hadoop cluster setup, and thus very small number of queue slots for submitting jobs to the ResourceManager.
Can you look into adding an additional queue by configuring your Hadoop cluster through capacity-scheduler.xml? Then you can use the approach mentioned in OOZIE-1673, to specify in your workflow's properties oozie.launcher.mapreduce.job.queuename=queue1 mapreduce.job.queuename=queue2 and avoid deadlock situation. You can also avoid deadlocks by tuning the memory requirements of your oozie launcher and child jobs, to request for lower memory container slots, and increase the number of jobs you can submit and execute that way.http://docs.hortonworks.com/HDPDocuments/HDP2/HDP-2.0.9.1/bk_installing_manually_book/content/rpm-chap1-11.html Mona Chitnis Yahoo!

I saw the project and I love it. But recently I'm going crazy about issues. Our problem is about Oozie Deadlock, we would like to execute more than one Oozie job at the same time but when we try to execute its the entire environment becames locked all. We read a lot of post about this issue but without solution. How is possible to set two different queue? We read a lot of post where people suggest to use different queue for different execution Where we could set these queue setting? Is this the correct way to have different execution at the same time? Our bewilderment is reading this issue https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OOZIE-1673 and if is as described the big doubt is about the usefulness of the enteire Oozie framework. I hope someone can help us to resolve it and clear our mind about. Any suggestion is welcome. Regards Gaetano Dott.
