Description

The website documentation states that to run IndexTool, you should do:

$ hbase org.apache.phoenix.mapreduce.index.IndexTool

This ends up running the class using the phoenix-server jar which fails because we have conflicting versions of commons-cli, as described by HBASE-20201. Phoenix-client.jar does not have this problem as we did the workaround there as well.

$ hadoop jar $PHOENIX_HOME/phoenix-*client.jar org.apache.phoenix.mapreduce.index.IndexTool

Does work, however. I suppose we still want to fix phoenix-server.jar? (no reason not to?)
