  * USERS AFFECTED:                                              *

  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:                                         *
  * Host On-Demand installation fails if there is not required   *
  * space available under tmp directory of the OS.               *
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  ****************************************************************
  While installing Host On-Demand, it uses tmp directory to
  extract the installer. If the tmp directory does not have enough
  space then the installer throws an error 'Not enough space in
  tmp'. To overcome this issue, user can set Environment variable
  IATEMPDIR. This environment variable is used to specify a custom
  temporary directory for Install Anywhere to use during the
  installation process.
  
  By default, Install Anywhere uses the system's default temporary
  directory. However, if the default temporary directory
  (e.g.'/tmp' on UNIX/Linux/Windows) does not have enough space,
  setting 'IATEMPDIR' to a location with sufficient disk space can
  prevent installation failures.
  
  Examples:
  setenv IATEMPDIR=/home/my_user_name/tmp
  or
  export IATEMPDIR=/home/my_user_name/tmp
  

Problem conclusion

• This is an environment issue. No further action.
