Tasks
By default the dlpsupport data collection tool generates the SOS report under /tmp directory.
This can be changed to an alternate directory by following the instructions in this article 
Resolution
The default directory for the SOS report can be changed by modifying the dlpsupporttool script.
Locate /opt/tablus/bin/dlpsupporttool
By default dlpsupporttool has the following:
dlpsupport_analyzer -q -r /home/tablus
sosreport -o rsadlp,general,filesys,memory
Change the default path to an alternative path with the following:
dlpsupport_analyzer -q -r /home/tablus --path "/home/tablus/"
sosreport -o rsadlp,general,filesys,memory --tmp-dir /home
--tmp-dir defines the directory where SOS report is generated in.
In the above example it generates the SOS report under /home.
