If you haven't specified inode64, then all inodes are located below
the 1TB mark. You've probably run out of space (or contiguous 16k
chunks of free space) below 1TB. Using inode64 will avoid this - for
a filesystem of that size, inode64 is probably a good idea as it
will significantly improve performance.

Keep in mind that legacy 32bit applications may have problems with
64 bit inode numbers, so if you have such applications (or 32 bit
NFS clients) then you need to check carefully as to whether 64 bit
inodes will work correctly or not....

Cheers,

Dave.
