I suppose this poses the next question to WLUG.

What do people recommend as tuning parameters and/or fs types for creating filesystems that have the potential to store massive ammounts of relatively small files?

Would I have been better suited to have this thing formatted with ReiserFS?

Thanks,
Tim.

df -i reveals that the filesystem is out of inodes.  Seriously this is the first time I've ever had this problem.

Well... time to do some cleaning!

Thanks,

The first thing I'd think of is are you out of inodes?  df -i
