Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • The vfs-nested.tmp in the JBoss instance's tmp directory has consumed high space > 10GB.
  • Having problems with the ./tmp path, the subpath vfs-nested.tmp is consuming lots of space. The only fix we are applying is restart the jboss.
  • Vfs-nested.tmp is growing without limits.
