Space requirement for Linux /tmp folder

On Linux, you can calculate the required size of your /tmp folder by estimating the number of your concurrent builds, the amount of files and entities in the source code being analyzed, and the number of detected issues in your build project. We recommend having a /tmp folder that is larger than your largest kwbuildproject tables directory.

Workaround: If your default /tmp folder isn't large enough for your analyses, you can specify an alternative location for the temporary directory.

Specify the location for the new temporary directory:

export TMPDIR=/new/tmp/dir

Ensure that Klocwork picks up the new location:

export KW_JVM_FLAGS=-Djava.io.tmpdir=/new/tmp/dir
