In order to increase the size of /tmp partition. Go through the following steps :
1. First stop MySQL, Apache, and cPanel to prevent writing to the /tmp partition :
========================
/etc/init.d/mysql stop
/etc/init.d/httpd stop
/etc/init.d/cpanel stop
========================
2. Take a backup of the current /tmp folder.
========================
tar -czfv tmp.tar.gz tmp
========================
3. Umount /tmp partition. If you’re unable to, you can do an lsof to see what processes are still writing to it, and kill them off.
========================
umount tmp
========================
4. Delete /usr/tmpDSK
========================
rm -rf /usr/tmpDSK
========================
5. Now edit the file /scripts/securetmp. Search for “tmpdsksize” and set the size you want in MB.
========================
vi /scripts/securetmp
$tmpdsksize = 512000 (change the “512000? value to your desired size in MB)
========================
Save and quit the file.
This will recreate your /tmp (tmpDSK) partition using the size you specified. While the securetmp script may be overwritten in a cPanel update, the size of /tmp will not be affected one you alter its size.
6. Now you can untar the /tmp backup
=======================
tar -xzvf tmp.tar.gz
=======================
7. Start all the services.
=======================
/etc/init.d/mysql start
/etc/init.d/httpd startssl
/etc/init.d/cpanel start
========================
