September 12, 20241 yr Hi, I need to increase my /tmp size. i did some research and found the - "mount -o remount,size=12G /tmp" But it doesn't seem to change the size for me. Any suggestions? Regards Dave
September 12, 20241 yr Community Expert Solution Because /tmp is not itself a tmpfs, it's just a folder in the rootfs. Would have to "mount -o remount,size=12G /" But you should rather use /dev/shm which is a separate tmpfs (could resize it the same way) with the difference that if you fill it you won't make the system crash because of a full rootfs. Still need to be careful to leave enough RAM for the apps and system. Edited September 12, 20241 yr by Kilrah
