i have started a java program in background and redirect its stdout and stderr in two different files in /tmp.

# java -server ClassName > /tmp/stdout.log 2>stderr.log

when the file is deleted, where does the java program dump its logs?

i have a case that `df -h` is reporting 86% used of /tmp eventhough there is no large files there. but it is supposed that stdout.log and stderr.log is there. i only asumed that the two files are deleted.

when i started the java program, it overwrites the log files so /tmp is now 2% used.

can anyone provide an explanation on this? you can request more info if these are not enough.. i don't know what to include. i don't have any logs.
