It would be really nice if SRSS would create those files someplace
other than in /tmp. /var/run would be better, for example.
This is CR 4525266. It was opened as a low priority request
(basically a "nice to have", not a "need to have") so there's
always been something more pressing to work on. As usual,
if customers tell Sun that this issue is important then there's
more chance that someone will get assigned to work on it.
Personally I'm not keen on /var/run as the new location.
I think of that more as a scratch area for system (root- or
daemon-owned) stuff. I'd prefer to mount a separate
tmpfs at some new location, maybe someplace below
/var/opt.
Now kiosk mode in SRSS 4.0 has set a precedent in introducing and using
a directory tree under /var/run/opt. That is still intended to be used
for root-owned data, but by services (like Sun Ray) that are not part of
the operating platform proper.
One issue with this is that some Linux platforms don't properly clean
out subdirectories of /var/run at reboot. This is most obvious in Red
Hat Linux, but other distros may also not remove everything.
