If you felt the need (is /tmp really a volume?) to yes.  Given VMs tend to have 
a dedicated
function, is there anything to be gained from such fine grained partitioning?  
You will run into
all sorts of problems if you want to image a VM built in this way.

Yes, /tmp is a volume, not mapped to memory. RHEL has this legacy. It could 
survive on the main,
root partition with little issue but years of RHEL training says otherwise. See 
my other post about
why one would slice up a volume this way.

I see. From a Solaris admin's perspective, it looks like something we did in the 90s :)
