It's default value would be /var/lib/storage
We should have "pulp" in the path. /var/cache/pulp would be a good choice and works well with the FHS. > > - Change common utils [1] to use ['server']['working_dirctory'] config as > base path. > > - Create 'working_directories' collection in database. > > - Add a check to repository_working_dir [2] and the rest of *_working_dir > methods to determine if this method is called from a task.

This will need to take into > account that the directories exist on a specific worker. This may be complicated. The directory exists on a specific machine, which may have several workers. Dispatching the cleanup task to a specific worker or specific machine may be difficult. Here's another option that wouldn't require a DB collection. Assume that /var/cache/pulp/ will actually be the value of the "working_directory" setting. When a worker starts, it creates the directory /var/cache/pulp/<worker_id>/. If it already exists, any content gets blown away. On exit, the whole directory named <worker_id> gets deleted. If a task requests temporary storage, the worker creates /var/cache/pulp/<worker_id>/<task_id>/ and makes a new temp directory within that. Multiple directories can be requested per task. When the task completes, the worker blows away the entire directory named <task_id>. I think that covers all of our bases.
