Mosaic scratch space

Mosaic operates in the following way when retrieving a compressed binary file : If there is not enough space in the work area (although there is in your destination scratchdir, Mosaic will fail on uncompressing, and you will be left with file A.Z (where A is a funny-looking unpredictable numeric name) in the work area. You may uncompress, move and remove it manually.
However it is best to avoid this situation, checking there is adequate space in /var/tmp (default work area), and if not, telling Mosaic at startup to use a different work area either:
