Description

Motivation

As far as I remember we already have tmpfs for some /tmp. Should we have a separate tmp dir or use a different directory for openQA related stuff so that we stay on the same filesystem?

Acceptance criteria

  • AC1: The OSD root filesystem is protected from running out of inodes if /tmp contains too many files

Suggestion

  • Look into using tmpfs
  • Maybe also make sure openQA does not use /tmp at all by default (we mostly use /var/lib/openqa subdirectories already for things like file uploads)
