Mike Drob commented on HBASE-20354:
-----------------------------------

Where do you see this happening? When starting hbase out of a dev workspace, everything works fine for me, and I am pretty sure it uses local disk there.

> the current docs for getting started walk through starting a stand alone cluster that relies on the local filesystem, but they don't account for HBASE-19289 so everything falls over.
> Needed configs, probably with more warnings:
> {code}
>  <property>
>     <name>hbase.procedure.store.wal.use.hsync</name>
>     <value>false</value>
>     <description>
>       Controls whether HBase will call hsync for durability promises on the procedure wal.
>       Disable this if you intend to run on LocalFileSystem.
>       WARNING: Doing so may expose you to additional risk of data loss!
>     </description>
>   </property>
>   <property>
>     <name>hbase.unsafe.stream.capability.enforce</name>
>     <value>false</value>
>     <description>
>       Controls whether HBase will check for stream capabilities (hflush/hsync).
>       Disable this if you intend to run on LocalFileSystem.
>       WARNING: Doing so may expose you to additional risk of data loss!
>     </description>
>   </property>
> {code}
> those "may" need to be changed to "will".
