Hi everyone.

I have a file in the cpool with 32000 links. HardLinkMax is set to 31999. Let's assume this is exactly correct, because one link is reserved for the 'pool'.

However, last night during the second full backup ever for this host, I got the following kind of error 24081 times:

Unable to link /data/pc/terranova/0/f%2f/fexport/fsmbshare/fpcdrive/fdwiech/fjesse/fcvswork/fpwstat/fCVS/fRoot to /data/pc/terranova/new//f%2f/fexport/fsmbshare/fpcdrive/fdwiech/fjesse/fcvswork/fpwstat/fCVS/fRoot

The file is a 'cvsroot' file, 'sandbox/module/CVS/Root', and since the same exact file exists in every subdirectory of every checked out project for every user on our system, this files gets a TON of links.

Does the above mean that the HardLinkMax isn't working for a subsequent full backup of an existing host?

Note: the link that is failing is NOT from the pool to a backup directory, but from one backup directory to another.

David
