Micah Whitacre commented on CRUNCH-272:
---------------------------------------

So I spent some time last week poking through Oozie code trying to figure out how Oozie was doing it for other processes like Hive.  It seems like how they solved the problem for the Hive action[1] could be generically applied to the Java action in general.  Therefore i logged an enhancement to Oozie to possibly solve this.[2]

> 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.
