You can run the Graph Property Workers two different ways. In a YARN process or in the web container.
To run in the web container make sure you have the following config set: webAppEmbedded.graphPropertyWorkerRunner.enabled=true
To run in a YARN process you'll need to build the graph-property-worker/graph-property-worker-yarn jar and deploy it as the yarn user using "yarn jar graph-property-worker-yarn.jar -jar graph-property-worker-yarn.jar"
In both cases you should see in your log files
"Loading io.lumify.gpw.audio.AudioMp4EncodingWorker from jar:file:/data0/yarn/local/usercache/yarn/appcache/application_1421512055477_0001/filecache/10/graph-property-worker.jar!/META-INF/services/io.lumify.core.ingest.graphProperty.GraphPropertyWorker"
with each of the Graph Property Workers.
Then you'll see "Begin work on element" for each property.
