<div>Those look to be outside of the core "xymon" distribution – they are ext scripts that would manage the deletion of those files</div>
<div>
<div>
<div>I would check the ext dir for bb-prtdiag.sh and sar.sh which look like the likely culprits, and make sure they are removing their temp files</div>

<div>Hi! </div>
<div> </div>
<div>In poking around in my client tmp directory, I see lots of files like this:</div>
<div> </div>
<div>-rw-r--r-- 1 hobbit monitor 10K Jun 6 2012 /home/hobbit/tmp/dwbu005.prtdiag.tmp.5719</div>
<div>-rw-r--r-- 1 hobbit monitor 5.3K Jun 6 2012 /home/hobbit/tmp/dwbu002.prtdiag.tmp.24625</div>
<div>-rw-r--r-- 1 hobbit monitor 5.3K Jun 6 2012 /home/hobbit/tmp/dwbu002.prtdiag.tmp.4496</div>
<div>-rw-r--r-- 1 hobbit monitor 10K Jun 6 2012 /home/hobbit/tmp/dwbu005.prtdiag.tmp.27931</div>
<div>-rw-r--r-- 1 hobbit monitor 5.3K Jun 4 2012 /home/hobbit/tmp/dwbu007.prtdiag.tmp.4316</div>
<div>-rw-r--r-- 1 hobbit monitor 5.3K Jun 1 2012 /home/hobbit/tmp/dwbu007.prtdiag.tmp.21618</div>
<div>-rw-r--r-- 1 hobbit monitor 10K May 31 2012 /home/hobbit/tmp/dwbu005.prtdiag.tmp.9044</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I also see a sprinkling of files like this:</div>
<div> </div>
<div>-rw-r--r-- 1 hobbit monitor 951 Nov 13 15:47 /home/hobbit/tmp/dwbu001.iostat.vmstat.log.13964</div>
<div>-rw-r--r-- 1 hobbit monitor 34 Nov 13 15:47 /home/hobbit/tmp/dwbu002.sar.tmp</div>
<div>-rw-r--r-- 1 hobbit monitor 34 Nov 13 15:47 /home/hobbit/tmp/dwbu001.sar.tmp</div>
<div>-rw-r--r-- 1 hobbit monitor 0 Nov 13 15:47 /home/hobbit/tmp/dwbu001.iostat.vmstat.error.13964</div>
<div>-rw-r--r-- 1 hobbit monitor 0 Nov 13 15:47 /home/hobbit/tmp/dwbu001.iostat</div>
<div>-rw-r--r-- 1 hobbit monitor 13 Nov 13 15:47 /home/hobbit/tmp/dwbu001.tm.tmp.dwbu001</div>
<div>-rw-r--r-- 1 hobbit monitor 13 Nov 13 15:46 /home/hobbit/tmp/dwbu002.tm.tmp.dwbu002</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Obviously these are temporary client data files, but the question is why didn’t they get removed? What mechanism does Xymon have for cleaning up these kinds of files?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thanks!</div>
