 or none of those options is safe. To prevent this happening during the nightly

+* FURTHER NOTES ON REPLICATION
+===============================
+Іf the MySQL server is acting as a replication slave, you should not
+set --tmpdir to point to a directory on a memory-based filesystem or to
+a directory that is cleared when the server host restarts. A replication
+slave needs some of its temporary files to survive a machine restart so
+that it can replicate temporary tables or LOAD DATA INFILE operations. If
+files in the temporary file directory are lost when the server restarts,
+replication fails.
