Changing the internal temp location

  1. Open <installation folder>/mss/server/conf/container.conf in a text editor.

  2. Edit the wrapper.java.additional property to specify the new location. If the path contains spaces:

    • OnWindows, enclose it in quotes.

    • OnLinux/UNIX, use the appropriate syntax. For example, wrapper.java.additional.9=-Djava.io.tmpdir=../tmp

  3. If needed, you can set an additional property to delete the temp directory when the server shuts down.

  4. Edit the Cassandra jvm.options file, and modify the two properties that control the location of temp files: -Djava.io.tmpdir and –Djna.tmpdir.

  5. Restart the server.
