OK, so it accelerated madly and ate all the inodes again as soon as I wrote that, so I've now killed the older half of your cvs server processes, and removed all the /tmp/cvs-serv* no longer associated with an active process. That should still leave you with enough debris to work out what's wrong with whatever you're doing. Oh, I've left /tmp/cvs-serv31300 as well, in case you need an example of one of the abandoned directories to understand what's happened. That should hold it for a few a day or so (we're back to 44% inodes used) Cheers, Phil. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFFEVMuYgOKS92bmRARAg+pAJsHiVJHI6y1JiVwKx7FuilKjlXnbQCdF402 7joJeou7TowRYBUBAncgaXE= =nX9P -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

It's currently at 80% of maximum inodes, and is on the rise again. Something's been eating inodes since Sunday by the looks of it. Of the files on /tmp, the largest proportion are owned by pmachard (about 220,000 files/directories, all in /tmp/cvs-serv* by the looks of it), and he also seems to be running 12 cvs servers at present, which seems very likely related. =-=-=-=-=- Pierre, Perhaps you're aware of what it is that you're doing to use all those files in /tmp on gluck (a.k.a. cvs.debian.org)? If so, please stop it, or do it another way that doesn't break things. It looks to me as though you're firing up loads of cvs instances, and then killing them in a way that prevents them from clearing up after themselves, but that's only after a cursory examination -- you should have a better idea of the details of what's occurring. Looking at the graphs, you'll have consumed all the inodes again in about 5 hours. If you've not done something about it before then, I'll almost certainly be forced to kill all your cvs processes, and discard all the directories belonging to you in /tmp on gluck. =-=-=-=-=- Cheers, Phil. -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFFEUXkYgOKS92bmRARAq/OAJ4xUs8OAd1O7aJoyC7l5NCQWuWnzwCffYT2 J1oFi13ey07BGRsKeUmkMWw= =skoX -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Can't write to /tmp on cvs.debian.org
I'm getting error messages from the cvs server on cvs.debian.org saying that it cannot write to the /tmp directory. It seems there are too many files on the file system, there are no inodes left in /tmp -- \\// Peter - http://www.softwolves.pp.se/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
