Temporary(4)Temporary(4)NAMETemporary - Stores data files during transfers to remote systems
SYNOPSIS
/usr/spool/uucp/SystemName/TM.xxPID.000
DESCRIPTION
The uucp Temporary (TM.*) files store data files during transfers to
remote systems. After a Data (D.*) file is transferred to a remote
system by the uucico daemon, the uucp program places it in a subdirec‐
tory of the uucp spooling directory named /usr/spool/uucp/SystemName,
where the SystemName directory is named for the computer that is trans‐
mitting the file. The uucp program creates a temporary data file to
hold the original data file.
The full pathname of the temporary data file is in the following for‐
mat: /usr/spool/uucp/SystemName/TM.xxPID.000
where the SystemName directory is named for the computer that is send‐
ing the file, and TM.xxPID.000 is the name of the file; for example,
TM.00451.000. The PID variable is the process ID of the job.
