tmp file system

[Robert Salter]

This post got kind of quite. Sarjerao, did you find out the problem?

If not, why not cat one of the AAA.... files to see what's in it, might point you in a direction to find out what the cause is.

Hi Stephen Keane,
I mean there is no any proces of that pid 10522, 10478

that files continuolsy creating are of 0 byte size.
I taken reboot and in single user mode deleted all that files from tmp. But after that again it started dumping AAA* files.

One thing you could try, to help isolate the problem, is to stop cron.

/sbin/init.d/cron stop

Then see if the files are still being created. If they aren't, then you have a job running under cron that is causing the problem. If they are still being created, then it probably isn't a cron job.

To restart cron

/sbin/init.d/cron start

After trying Stephen's suggestion, you may want to check your fuser -u /tmp again. You said it showed only root before, so it would have to be one of those processes. Possibly a daemon or background process that's looping.
