The short answer is that you have reached the maximum number of files those partitions will support based on how you formatted them. You need to either remove files from the partitions, expand the partitions which would also expand the inode pool or re-format them with a higher inode density. Clearly the first is easiest. I consider it unusual to hit max inodes under normal circumstances. Do you have an unusual number of files on those filesystems? Note that /dev/shm is a special filesystem and can't be modified. I believe check_disk ignores it. A longer description of inodes is at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inode. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------- SF.net email is sponsored by: A Better Job is Waiting for You - Find it Now.
