Resolution

In the Endevor Tomcat STDENV file: 

• The reports directory is '$CATALINA_BASE/webapps/endevor/reports'
• The temp directory is specified by java.io.tmpdir

Sample name pattern for the temp files: '1601551333-1581085751880422-NAME.tmp' 
Sample name pattern for reports: '1601551333-1581085751880422-NAME'
where the first section is a timestamp of file creation and the second part is a random unique number. 

Additional Information

During periods of high user volume and transaction activity, it is possible for a large number of temporary files to be present simultaneously.

If the zFS filesystem is sized to accommodate the peak volume of temporary files, it should not run out of space.
