NRDS does not spool data in any particular directory. It runs the commands you define for it and directly takes the output from the plugin. The full source code for NRDS can be found on your XI server here: /usr/local/nrdp/clients/nrds/nrds.pl

I don't see anywhere in the code that actually uses the TMPDIR variable, so I am not certain why that article exists. I will have our QA test this and get back to you.

I did some digging and it seems that article references some custom modifications that were made by a former developer of ours. You can find out more in this thread:

I cannot confirm that as we do not test custom modifications against our software. The changes made by @mweber were never included to my knowledge, so they would be considered non-standard. That is something you will need to test in your environment.
