             Summary: Unable to correlate crunch jobs within Oozie
                 Key: CRUNCH-272
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CRUNCH-272
             Project: Crunch
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Mike Zimmerman


I'm not really sure if this should be logged to Oozie or to Crunch, so please feel free to move as needed.

I would like to request a way to decorate map/reduce jobs that are spawned by a Crunch pipeline so that I can programmatically determine their origin.  The primary use case for this is integration with Oozie.  Oozie launches a single map job to run a java action (in our case this java action runs a crunch job).  Traceability from this original "launcher" job to the jobs created by the crunch job is impossible without trolling logs.  This leaves a big black hole for the system operator to assess the performance/impact of these jobs.  My initial thought was to provide a simple way to indicate a correlationId or similar on a map/reduce job and then make it accessible within Oozie to query for.  Obviously, that request would have to come after the correlation feature was available within map/reduce.
