Check Text ( C-28881r1_chk )
Determine if the /tmp path is a separate file system. # grep /tmp /etc/vfstab If no result is returned, /tmp is not on a separate file system, this is a finding. If the returned result indicates that /tmp is mounted on a memory or swap based file system, this is not a finding

Fix Text (F-25907r1_fix)
