We have a monthly process that clears out any /tmp files older than a certain period.

Subject: Who clears /tmp regularly

I was trying to provide some files to IBM on a machine we don't regularly look after.

The files were in /tmp

There were over 1 million files in /tmp and it seems you can only enter a filter after the list has been built.

Just curious if you regularly clear this directory or if you have tools to regularly clean up old files or some other approach ?

Cheers

Don
