List-Id: XFS Filesystem from SGI List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; Format="flowed" Errors-To: xfs-bounces@oss.sgi.com Sender: xfs-bounces@oss.sgi.com To: xfs@oss.sgi.com Hi, Sorry if the answer is obvious, but I didn't find any clear answer after googling. I have a XFS system of 18T over LVM. Recently, I could not create new files or directories. # mkdir tempo mkdir: cannot create directory `tempo': No space left on device After deleting a few files, this command runs successfully. So I think that the system runs out of something, inodes I guess. But the df diagnosis does not enlight it: only 1% used. # df -ht xfs Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/mapper/vg1_backup-backup 18T 12T 6.6T 63% /mnt/vg1_backup/backup # df -it xfs Filesystem Inodes IUsed IFree IUse% Mounted on /dev/mapper/vg1_backup-backup 18874040320 530042 18873510278 1% /mnt/vg1_backup/backup So what is wrong? How should I solve the problem? I read about xfs_grow -m, but I am not sure if it could help. Of course, I rebooted the system before my trials.
