I'm trying to diagnose a mysterious ENOSPC that happens infrequently when our application writes to a GFS filesystem. Here's an example system call: write(22, "\0\0", 2) = 2 write(22, "\4\7\01012345678\4\10\10\10\3\n\0\0\0\4\3\5\0\0\0\4\3\30\0\0\0"..., 299718) = -1 ENOSPC (No space left on device) The file is empty prior to the first write(). 2 bytes are successfully written before the 2nd write() fails. The filesystem has plenty of blocks and inodes free. Does this indicate some sort of resource starvation? If so, what is an effective strategy to mitigate? Repeat the operation? Write in smaller chunks? Any help appreciated, Jeff -- Linux-cluster mailing list Linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
