Grzegorz Chilkiewicz updated OOZIE-2101:
----------------------------------------
    Description: 
i'd read documentation about Oozie,
it looks interesting, but i've a doubt:

first web-page says "Oozie Workflow jobs are Directed Acyclical Graphs (DAGs) 
of actions."
so i assumed it can deal with any DAG, but documentation says it is limited to 
specific subset of DAGs, 
ie:  (DAG in ASCII art, directed top-down:)
....1
.../.\
..2...\
./.\...\
3...4...5
.\...\./
..\...6
...\./
....7
can't be expressed in Oozie workflow
(according to documentation: every join-node must join all branches of 
corresponding fork-node, so my ASCII DAG isn't valid Oozie workflow...)
am i wrong? / why it's so limited? / is it intentional?

//
//if join-node could just wait until all IN-edges are traversed,
//not necessary from any particular 'corresponding fork-node'
//it would work for all DAGs.....
//
