Once upon a time, Robert Nichols <rnicholsNOSPAM@xxxxxxxxxxx> said: > It's a problem that crops up occasionally, and makes people wonder why they get a "No space on filesystem" error when the df command shows that plenty of space is available. That's why the df command has a "-i" option to report inode usage. A filesystem that's being used for things like a news spool, which holds lots of small files, needs to be created with more than the default allocation of inodes. Heh, I haven't run a Usenet server in just over 23 years, but even then, server software was moving away from the file-per-article storage to avoid this issue (and others). Mail servers, on the other hand, were jumping to the file-per-message method just as fast as Usenet servers discarded it, and are still using it. -- Chris Adams <linux@xxxxxxxxxxx> _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/new_issue
