Both posts clarified the point that files residing under /tmp/var are not required after GlassFish comes up successfully.
The below is a listing of the files in the said directory (/var/tmp):

Can anyone advise why glassfish creates so many *.tmp files please? In addition, looking at the timestamp, these files gets created in rapid succession, stops, and then gets created again. They are also not removed on a restart.
I therefore wonder if its safe to simply delete these files after glassfish comes up successfully please?
Thanks a lot for the assistance.
