 NameNodeResouceChecker#checkAvailableResources currently just checks for free 
 space. However inodes are also a file system resource that needs to be 
 available (you can run out of inodes but have free space).

I personally would like to see it go into safemode, just because you never know 
what in the system will start to have problems when you run out of inodes, or 
any other resource for that matter.  I would hope most standard things would 
fail gracefully, but you never know and having a corrupted edit log because we 
tried to roll them when there were no inodes available is a very bad thing.

NameNode also does create local image/edits files upon every checkpointing and 
such - so the inode monitoring is surely relevant.

bq. having a corrupted edit log because we tried to roll them when there were 
no inodes available is a very bad thing.

Certainly true, though it seems unlikely that this would result in a truly 
corrupt edit log that the NN couldn't restart from, since running out of inodes 
would presumably result in no file being created at all, which isn't an invalid 
edit log.

bq. NameNode also does create local image/edits files upon every checkpointing 
and such - so the inode monitoring is surely relevant.

Is a low number of fs inodes a problem for namenode ? Since namenode doesn't 
create new files in the local filesystem (unlike datanode) while it is running 
, will it be fine if we put nn into safe mode when system run out of inodes ? 
Or are we talking about just logging a warning ?

That is a great point.  I would suggest that we output a warning/error the 
first time this happens for each disk and possibly include a metric for it.  
For all file systems that I know of that have a static number of inodes the 
ratio of inodes to disk space is configurable and even if it requires 
reformatting the drive, knowing that it is a problem will allow operations to 
possibly adjust that ratio appropriately.
