[Sunhelp] /tmp filling

[Omar List]

Obviously your swap space is full.. You can very this with 'swap -s'.  You
need to add more swap spaces. To create a 20 mb swapfile, 

# mkfile 20m <swap_filename>

To activate swap:

# swap -a <swap_filename>

You'll need to add a line for the new swap file at /etc/vfstab so it gets
activated after reboots.

You'll definitely like to do 'man swap' for more info :)
