I have never seen the \nsr\tmp dirctory get this large!!!
Yes, you can delete it, but you shoud stop NetWorker servcies first.

In any case, it is recommended for many support issues that you should stop services and delete the contents of tmp folder.

However, this is extremely strange that the size has grown to 111 GB. If it grows again, please contact support.

111GB... wow, what do you keep there? The only thing I could think of is that you have index backup where merging index of such backup fails and leave data in it. Other than that, I'm puzzled why would you have 111GB of data inside. Nevertheless, you can delete it, but it is recommended to do that while NW is stopped.

It does seem very large and I would not expect it to get so big - the size may be symptomatic of another problem... It could be you have some debug logging enabled somewhere - you could also check the size of /nsr/logs though we would expect that to build up a fair bit of data...

Anyway, it is safe to delete the contents of nsr/tmp after you have stopped Networker - this folder is used simply to track live backups so when all backups are stopped it should be empty!
