You can tell Hadoop to use a different temp directory by placing this in your
hadoop-site.xml file, replace the value mount with your preferred:
<property>
<name>hadoop.tmp.dir</name>
<value>/usr/local/example/mount/hadoop-${user.name}</value>
<description>Hadoop temp directory</description>
</property>

Subject: /tmp/hadoop filled up
Hey
I just did a mergesegs on my 29GB segments dir - the /tmp/hadoop folder
grew to 66GB before the disk /tmp is on filled up and did Bad Things.
Can anyone suggest why this happened, how to prevent it (or better) tell
Hadoop to use a tmpdir which is on a bigger disk?
Thanks
-Rob
