> When an exception is thrown in a server process, the Hadoop Server class passes the exception class name and error message across the wire to the Hadoop Client. The Hadoop Client then throws a RemoteException with the class name and error message as part of its payload. Thus an interface like:
>   public HRegionInfo getRegionInfo(final Text regionName) throws NotServingRegionException;
> actually throws a RemoteException on the client with org.apache.hadoop.hbase.NotServingRegionException as the class name and the remote message as the message.
> Anywhere in the HBase code where we try to catch NotServingRegionException will thus never see it if it came across an RPC.
