How can you know beforehand, without running fsck, that all inodes are used
of a particular ext3 filesystem? Default systemtools use output from df,
which shows only a 50% usage of the filesystem, and pretend nothing is
wrong, while you really cant't move or copy a file to it. So I only found
out when running fsck.
This is my output from fsck (RH7.2, stock kernel, stock? ext3):
root# fsck -f -v /dev/hda1
fsck 1.26 (3-Feb-2002)
e2fsck 1.26 (3-Feb-2002)
Pass 1: Checking inodes, blocks, and sizes
Pass 2: Checking directory structure
Pass 3: Checking directory connectivity
Pass 4: Checking reference counts
Pass 5: Checking group summary information
10880 inodes used (100%)
1025 non-contiguous inodes (9.4%)
# of inodes with ind/dind/tind blocks: 702/80/0
1229437 blocks used (44%)
0 bad blocks
0 large files
9925 regular files
815 directories
0 character device files
0 block device files
0 fifos
3 links
131 symbolic links (131 fast symbolic links)
0 sockets
--------
10874 files
I suppose my lesson is not to set up ext3 for using a average filesize of 1
mb or something like that, to many small files I guess causes this. Next
time I will stick with the default. Maybe better lessons for me?
greetings, Sil
