24 The following properties are set for running HBase as a single process on a
25 developer workstation. With this configuration, HBase is running in
26 "stand-alone" mode and without a distributed file system. In this mode, and
27 without further configuration, HBase and ZooKeeper data are stored on the
28 local filesystem, in a path under the value configured for `hbase.tmp.dir`.
29 This value is overridden from its default value of `/tmp` because many
30 systems clean `/tmp` on a regular basis. Instead, it points to a path within
31 this HBase installation directory.
33 Running against the `LocalFileSystem`, as opposed to a distributed
34 filesystem, runs the risk of data integrity issues and data loss. Normally
35 HBase will refuse to run in such an environment. Setting
36 `hbase.unsafe.stream.capability.enforce` to `false` overrides this behavior,
37 permitting operation. This configuration is for the developer workstation
38 only and __should not be used in production!__
