swverify reports inaccurate signature verification results if /tmp does not have enough free
space
When a digitally signed software in a depot is verified using swverify or a tape depot is
verified using swsign v, the command may report inaccurate results if there is not enough
free space in /tmp.
Corrective Action: Ensure that there is more than 300 MB of free space in/tmp. A depot larger
than 10 GB may require more free space. Run the swjob command printed at the end of
swverify session and make sure there are no errors.
