             Summary: Introduce path configuration for system coprocessors
                 Key: HBASE-26714
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-26714
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: Coprocessors
    Affects Versions: 2.5.0, 3.0.0-alpha-3
            Reporter: Tak-Lon (Stephen) Wu


Currently when region server starts, system coprocessors are normally loaded as part of the local classpath and the jar is stored in the local storage; in short words, Operator would have to copy the jar to each host (or a shared file system) and construct it as part of HBASE_CLASSPATH. 

although operator may have been doing the presetup of copying jar and making it available to the HBASE_CLASSPATH without any issue, it could be helpful if we provide an alternative method and centralize this configuration in hbase-site similar to the support of table-level coprocessor, e.g. configuring {{hbase.coprocessor.region.classes}} with the local/remote path along with the classname with a specific path token in the form of {{className|priority|path}}.


Similarly in HBASE-23710, it provided the priority configuration via hbase-site that this new improvement aligns with the same purpose, and further help to simplify the deployment of System Coprocessors to e.g. hdfs or supported cloud storage.
