+Datasets represented as pathsets can be split in a number of files.
+This tool takes all of them and concatenates them into a single output file.
+
+In your workflow, you'll need to explicitly set the appropriate data format on the
+output dataset with an Action to "Change Datatype".
+
+"Delete remote input data" option
+====================================
+With this option, after the data has been concated into the new Galaxy dataset,
+the original files that were referenced by the pathset are deleted.  This effectively
+tells the action to "move" the data instead of a "copying" it and helps
+avoid amassing intermediate data in your Hadoop workspace.
+
+
+"Use Hadoop-based program" option
+====================================
+
+With this option you will use your entire Hadoop cluster to simultaneously write
+multiple parts of the final file.  For this to be possible, the Hadoop nodes
+must be able to access the Galaxy file space directly.  In addition, to achieve
+reasonable results the Galaxy workspace should on a parallel shared file system.
