hadoop.tmp.dir directory size

Hi Folks,

I am running a map only (no reduce) job on Hadoop 2.3.0 and  the
/tmp/hadoop-df/nm-local-dir (df being my user name) directory is growing
exponentially causing me run out of my 80GB disk space.

I would like to know if there is any mechanism(automatic or manual) by
which I can free up the space in /tmp/hadoop-df/nm-local-dir while the job
is still running.

Thanks.

Can You just try and see this.

Configuration conf = new Configuration();
FileSystem fs = FileSystem.get(conf);
fs.deleteOnExit("path/to/tmp");

Can I do this while the job is still running ? I know I cant delete the
directory , but I just want confirmation that the data Hadoop writes into
/tmp/hadoop-df/nm-local-dir (df being my user name) can be discarded while
the job is being executed.
