Have you ever run out of i-nodes? Have you ever come *close* to runningout of i-nodes? Has anyone on this list? Other than as a test, of course, to see what happens?
Yes, on an HP-UX box that was due to be replaced, we ran out of inodes when a program went crazy creating 0-byte files in /tmp. Ran / tmp clean out of inodes, even though there was plenty of actual disk space left over. Scripting error. :)
That was a 512MB /tmp (huge back then) created with 4KB blocks per inode, IIRC.
