No durability when running with LocalFileSystem
-----------------------------------------------

                 Key: HBASE-3696
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-3696
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: documentation, wal
            Reporter: Todd Lipcon


LocalFileSystem in Hadoop doesn't currently implement sync(), so when we're 
running in that case, we don't have any durability. This isn't a huge deal 
since it isn't a realistic deployment scenario, but it's probably worth 
documenting. It caused some confusion for a user when a table disappeared after 
killing a standalone instance that was hosting its data in the local FS.
