Resolution:
Description:
============
Temporary files are created each time when applications are deployed and they are not deleted until the Administrator server is restarted. These temporary files can be removed safely while the Administrator server and Hawk agent are down. The temporary file location is, by default, the system temporary area and can be changed by adding the property java.property.java.io.tmpdir in the tibcoadmin_domainname.tra file. For example, the following line will change the temporary file location to /ust/tibco/tmp.
    java.property.java.io.tmpdir=/ust/tibco/tmp

Send a termination signal when stopping the Administrator server so that the Administrator server can clean up any temporary files. Alternatively, you can log into the Administrator GUI, select TIBCO Administrator process under All Service Instances, and then click the Stop button.

When starting the Administrator server, temporary files may be created for plugin files and each deployment revision history of applications. So you can always see temporary files while the Administrator server is running and it suggested specifying a proper value for MaxDeploymentRevision for all applications and truncate unnecessary revision histories.

For TIBCO Runtime Agent (TRA) 5.6 and lower versions, there may be some temporary files not cleaned up properly although the Administrator server was restarted properly. This was fixed in TRA 5.7.0.
