Node-Dependant TMP directory

Never tried but in principle yes.

In any case, the output file need to be put back on the main disk and this means a lot of disk space.
The only way around for a quota problem are
1) increase the quota
2) move the process directory to a disk space where you don't have any quota.

Hi Olivier

Thanks, I wanted to make sure there is no solution in the MG side. I am working with the cluster support team to see what can be done on that side.

Thanks a lot for your answer,

Cheers
Nicolas
