OraInstall* folders are piling up in /tmp directory

[rrod157]

Hello,

I'd like to know if we can prevent OraInstall folders from piling up the /tmp directory? Is there something in the orawls module that can clean this up after a puppet run?

Not really , you need to add a cronjob for this which cleans these old dirs . I cannot do it from puppet because it will be seen as a config change.

So it is safe to say that I can delete them every puppet run? Can i just create a manifest to just remove these temp files in /tmp?

don't do that because puppet see it as a change or configuration change. the goal is here to have a stable system which runs every x minutes and has no changes.
