Running a temporary file system in a colony address space
In some situations, you might want to run a temporary file system in a colony address space instead of the kernel address space. Because the temporary file system can use up a large amount of kernel virtual memory, there might be some environments in which the kernel can run out of private storage. This can happen on large systems with many shell users or in some Lotus® environments. By putting the temporary file system in a colony, impact on the kernel is reduced, and you can have a larger temporary file system.
Guideline: Because TFS uses virtual memory, your real and auxiliary storage configurations must be large enough to accommodate the size of all of the temporary file systems that you mount.
