Cleaning up temporary files
The Health Center client uses temporary files to hold work in progress. You can save disk space by removing these temporary files at regular intervals.
The Health Center client stores temporary data in the operating system temporary directory. Filenames have the format healthcenter[xxxx]Source[xxxx].tmp. Remove these temporary data files regularly to avoid excessive use of disk space. The files are not automatically removed because they can be used by the Health Center for analysis tasks in offline mode.
For IBM® SDK for Java™ Technology Edition, Version 5 service refresh 9 and earlier, or Version 6 service refresh 4 and earlier, the Health Center agent also stores data to disk. Delete the perfmon.out file occasionally if you typically start the agent from the command line:
-agentlib:healthcenter -Xtrace:output=perfmon.out
