A hardware vendor shipped us a product installed with RedHat 8.0 with all file systems created as ext3. This system has about 800 GB of space which we use for buffering email files (in RFC format). Several weeks into the project and with millions of emails stored, we started seeing "out of inode" (something like that) error messages in the /var/log/messages. Are inodes fixed on ext3 or does this depend on how the file system is created? Boxes that we build ourselves we normally convert the large filesystems into ReiserFS which doesn't have the same problem because inodes are dynamically created. Just curious.
