<h2>clrtmp - Clear the /tmp directory</h2>
<strong>Synopsis</strong>
<p><strong>clrtmp [-c]</strong></p>
<p><strong>Description</strong></p>
<p>The <strong>clrtmp</strong> utility clears the /tmp directory by removing
all of the objects from it.
On other systems, the /tmp directory is cleared each time the system
is started. On i5/OS<SUP>(TM)</SUP>, the /tmp directory is not cleared when the
system is started. You can include a call to the <strong>clrtmp</strong> utility
from the startup program specified by the QSTRUPPGM system value
to have the /tmp directory cleared when i5/OS<SUP>(TM)</SUP> is started.</p>
<p>To remove objects from the /tmp directory the caller of <strong>clrtmp</strong>
must have *WX authority to each subdirectory contained in /tmp and *OBJEXIST authority
to each object. If the caller does not have the required authority those objects are not
removed from the /tmp directory.</p>
<p>Unpredictable results may occur if <strong>clrtmp</strong> is called while the system
is running. For example, if another program is writing to a file in the /tmp
directory, the path to the file is removed and you will not be able use the file.</p>
