             Summary: Sqoop2: Extracting sequence files may result in duplicates
                 Key: SQOOP-2811
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SQOOP-2811
             Project: Sqoop
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.99.6
            Reporter: Abraham Fine
            Assignee: Abraham Fine


In the hdfs extractor we use:
```
    if (start > filereader.getPosition()) {
      filereader.sync(start); // sync to start
    }
```

to jump to the correct point in the sequence file that we want to extract.

If the sequence file is small, multiple start points may `sync` to the same point and we could end up extracting the same record multiple times.
