I utilize podman on my server for running my software.

Recently, I saw that my server ran out of space on its 8TB raid 10 array. Which immediately raised questions for me.

After using "duc" to analyze my drive. I found that podman had used 4 TB of storage space in "/var/tmp".

Anyone else have this happen to them?

/tmp should be just that (temporary).

There should not be any ill effects to completely empty /tmp

Some distros put /tmp on a ram drive that gets created fresh (and empty) with each reboot.
