Jimmy Xiang commented on HBASE-9374:
------------------------------------
That's right. It works around the problem. The issue is that we don't know if
it is in the server side or client side. Let me check if I can add some
checking in the server side.
> Client requires write access to hbase.local.dir unnecessarily

> {quote}
> It appears that as of HBASE-1936, we now require that client applications
> have write access to hbase.local.dir. This is because ProtobufUtil
> instantiates a DyanamicClassLoader as part of static initialization. This
> classloader is used for instantiating Comparators, Filters, and Exceptions.
> {quote}
> Client applications do not need to use DynamicClassLoader and so should not
> require this write access.
