Check: GEN003624
Solaris 10 SPARC STIG:
GEN003624
(in versions v2 r4 through v1 r19)
Title
The system must use a separate filesystem for /tmp (or equivalent). (Cat III impact)
Discussion
The use of separate filesystems for different paths can protect the system from failures resulting from a filesystem becoming full or failing.
Check Content
Determine if the /tmp path is a separate file system. # grep /tmp /etc/vfstab If no result is returned, /tmp is not on a separate file system, this is a finding. If the returned result indicates that /tmp is mounted on a memory or swap based file system, this is not a finding
Fix Text
Migrate the /tmp path onto a separate file system.
