Then it will be high time you learn not to abuse /tmp that way and work in your (or your services) home/data directory. Problem easily avoided. plus you don't need to make /tmp 20 TB because you have lots of data. ;) I'm a bit surprised how many people seem to really rely on data in /tmp to survive for weeks or even months.
