SQLa0000.tmp file rapidly increases

We have noticed recently that there is a temp file in C:\windows\temp called sqla0000.tmp (c:\windows\temp\sqla0000.tmp) that continuously grows over time until it completely fills the hard drive.  It seems that the file grows gradually and then on one day it balloons to fill the entire hard drive.

 This file is associated with Symantec Endpoint Manager as you need to stop the SEPM service to delete it.

I noticed that if I restart my Symantec Embedded Database service, the file shrinks tremendously. However, I have had to do this 2 times in the past 3 months.

qla000.tmp file is consuming hard drive space
