Hi Chris, I'm excited to see your interest in Sqoop2! I believe that you've done everything correctly and that the output is expected. The reason for that is the difference between "connector" and "driver". You might find more details about the difference in our blog [1]. The article is written for Sqoop 1, but the same concepts applies to Sqoop2. To make the story short - Connectors usually came with Sqoop and are the thing you can see after calling "show connector -a", JDBC Drivers are something that is required by the connectors in order to do the work and you have to install them manually (licensing issues). So in your case Sqoop 2 already came with a "Generic JDBC Connector" and you've just installed an Oracle "JDBC Driver".
