Should I create a new user for oozie

Hi everyone,

Should I create a new user and a new group for installing oozie and run
oozie workflows?

Hi

It is recommended to use a Oozie Unix user for the Oozie server.
See:
https://oozie.apache.org/docs/4.2.0/DG_QuickStart.html#Server_Installation

On the other hand, it is not necessary to submit workflows as the oozie
user because the Oozie client uses the REST API to communicate with the
Oozie server.

BR,
