Gadi, If you are running low on space, you might also look at running the skulker shell script that IBM supplies. I have a minimally configured CRON schedule that runs a few housekeeping scripts. We also converted /tmp from a TFS to a real filesystem a couple years ago.
First is to touch certain files created at IPL that never get their last used date/time updated, but if they disappear cause a problem. !/bin/sh filetouch resets last access date/time on in process files in /tmp so that skulker does not delete them for inactivity. touch -c /tmp/dpi_socket touch -c /tmp/omproute.stderr touch -c /tmp/omproute.stdout touch -c /tmp/pagent.pid touch -c /tmp/pagent.log touch -c /tmp/pagent.log1 touch -c /tmp/pagent.log2 touch -c /tmp/sshd.stderr touch -c /tmp/unix.str touch -c /tmp/CAZLCS01 touch -c /tmp/EQACMINT touch -c /tmp/FMNCAS-IPVCERT.kdb touch -c /tmp/FMNCSEP touch -c /tmp/IDIGMAIN touch -c /tmp/IPVVRFY Then I run via CRON 00 0 1 * * mv /var/spool/cron/skulker.log /var/spool/cron/skulker.log.old 01 0 * * * /shared/etc/filetouch 10 0 * * * /usr/sbin/skulker -R -l /var/spool/cron/skulker.log /tmp/ 3 _____________________________________________________________________________________________________ Dave Jousma AVP | Manager, Systems Engineering Fifth Third Bank | 1830 East Paris Ave, SE | MD RSCB2H | Grand Rapids, MI 49546 616.653.8429 | fax: 616.653.2717 -----Original Message----- From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List <IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU> On Behalf Of Gadi Ben-Avi Sent: Tuesday, June 2, 2020 9:27 AM To: IBM-MAIN@LISTSERV.UA.EDU Subject: Extending the /tmp file system **CAUTION EXTERNAL EMAIL** **DO NOT open attachments or click on links from unknown senders or unexpected emails** Hi, Is it possible to extend the /tmp file system without an IPL?
