Uma Maheswara Rao G commented on HADOOP-7817:
---------------------------------------------
Yes, the position will come as zero, because it directly opens the
FileOutPutstream in append mode. This will ensures that the data to go at the
end of the file.
fixing this would be simple, we can set the position on fileChannel position to
the length of the file. But i am not sure this is really a bug or not, because
the author intention is to leave as it is equal behavior with FileOutPutStream
when opening in append mode....?
> RawLocalFileSystem.append() should give FSDataOutputStream with accurate
