Rohini Palaniswamy commented on HBASE-19920: -------------------------------------------- There was no failure because of this. We just noticed that this was happening while debugging a different issue. > TokenUtil.obtainToken unnecessarily creates a local directory > ------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-19920 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-19920 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Rohini Palaniswamy > Priority: Major > > On client code, when one calls TokenUtil.obtainToken it loads ProtobufUtil > which in its static block initializes DynamicClassLoader and that creates the > directory ${hbase.local.dir}/jars/ and also instantiates a filesystem class > to access hbase.dynamic.jars.dir. > https://github.com/apache/hbase/blob/master/hbase-common/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/util/DynamicClassLoader.java#L109-L127 > Since this is region server specific code, not expecting this to happen when > one accesses hbase as a client. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
