When a temporary file directory is specified by the BSORT_TMPDIR of startup file, tmpdir operand (-option option in bsortex command) or environment variable TMPDIR, note the following points.
Specify the directory that can be used.
When specifying two or more directories, delimit by the colon and specify the directory without putting the blank.
Example
Correct specification
/sortwk1:/sortwk2
Wrong specification
/sortwk1 : /sortwk2
Specify directory with enough empty space.
The temporary file is recommended to specify the directory on a device different from the input file and the output file. There is a possibility that the processing time increases by the competition of I/O when the same device is specified.
