How To Run Oozie Coordinator Jobs

First you have to export the url

export url "http://localhost.localdomain:1100/oozie"

Then submit the job

oozie job -oozie http://localhost.localdomain:11000/oozie -config coord.properties -submit

For running a simple Oozie job you have to run a job.properties file but for time triggered you have run coord.properties file

Directory Structure for using Oozie:

ProjectFolder

                Lib

Jars that you want to run. If you have made a mapreduce job than make a jar from it and place It here

                DataFolder

                                Input output files

                CoordinatorFolder

                                Coord.xml

Job.properties file ( should be on the local file system all other should be on hdfs,namenode jobtracker are mentioned here)

                Workflow.xml ( actual workflow file that specifies which job to run which class to run and parameters are also specified here)

Coordinator Job

1-      The workflow job is started after the predicate is satisfied. A predicate can reference to data, time and/or external events

2-      The outputs of last 4 runs of a workflow that runs every 15 minutes become the input of another workflow that runs every 60 minutes. Chaining together these workflows result it is referred as a data application pipeline
