No Free I-nodes

Hi all

fron bdf output it is giving 29 % of fre space available on the filesystem

and in bdf -i output it is giving only 15% of freee inodes.

and the file system type is vxfs. wheteher we have to take care of free i -nodes or the file system will take care of free inode..

means if it required whether the file system will create the i -inode automatically..?

pls help me

Thanks in advance

Re: No Free I-nodes

inodes are taken care by file system itself. You need not worry about increasing / decreasing inode(s). To know inode structure then,

# man inode

will give it.

Veritas Release Notes for VxFS 3.X:

Inode Limitation on File Systems Without Large File Support

For a file system to have more than 8 million inodes, you must create it using
the largefiles option of mkfs (the fsadm utility can also be used to set the
largefiles flag on the file system).

try # fsadm -F vxfs / If largefile support is not enabled, you can enable by
# fsadm -F vxfs -o largefiles /
