Module: check_mk Branch: master Commit: 5d527294c092d833c5b667b33ed265b3fa9c898b URL: http://git.mathias-kettner.de/git/?p=check_mk.git;a=commit;h=5d527294c092d8… Author: Andreas Umbreit <au(a)mathias-kettner.de> Date: Mon Oct 22 12:24:57 2018 +0200 5515 Allow Configuration of TMPDIR environment variable in the context of Check_MK Agent It is now possible so set the environment variable TMPDIR in the context of the execution of the Check_MK Agent. This can be configured within the Agent ruleset "Installation paths for agent files (Linux, UNIX). Some agent commands or plugins may follow the environment variable TMPDIR for storage of temporary files. For some reasons, you might want to adapt this path. Namely, the agent updater won't work with a "\tmp" dir that is mounted with a "noexec"-flag. Please note that the Check_MK Agent does no automatic cleaning on this custom path.
