    /tmp and /dev are files in the main root of the servers. So just go and create it.

    Not that simple. /tmp and /dev/shm are mount partitions

    tmpfs /tmp tmpfs nodev,nosuid,noexec,mode=1777 0 0

    In fstab, reboot and see how you go.

    In general vps providers won't allow to enable access for external partitions . May be you can use Xen vps , so you can create any type of partitions in xen full virtualization

    If you have a fully managed VPS, you can contact your hosting provider and ask them to solve the problem for you.
