You can use /home/backup but this will affect quotas if its cpanel, you really need your own partition for backups. The following threads explain how to resize the /tmp directory: http://forums.cpanel.net/f5/what-usr-tmpdsk-209201.html http://forums.cpanel.net/f189/resize...lp-181851.html http://forums.cpanel.net/f5/how-resize-tmp-86345.html

Hi, You can manually create a user block using DD command and use it. You can search the text "create tmp partition from block" in Google and checkout the first link from cyberciti.biz. See if that is helpful.
