Hi,

I have never tried, but couldn't you simply manually define a higher 
bytes-per-inode ratio with mkfs.ext4 -i ?

Arch-Wiki has some explanations on the topic:

Greetings,

Amos

Betreff: [Etherlab-users] Best filesystem for DLS?

Hi,

Short version:
-------------------
What is the best filesystem for DLS data ?

Long version:
-------------------
I am running DLS to archive a lot of signals (about 20K), and I am facing an 
issue with the number of files.

I have a 1TB EXT4 filesystem to store the data. It is 50% full but there is no 
more free inodes, because DLS creates many files and directories.
According to the output of “df -i”, DLS has already created about 78M of files.

I understand that I have to switch to another filesystem that supports a bigger 
number of files.
And I wonder, what is the best filesystem for such a case.

Regards,
