Hi Ivan,

I have run a test script to create 100 directories and then 100 more directories under each of the 100 directories. That means there is a total of 100x100=10000 directories.

To be clear, I try to construct something like /coda/test/xx/xx. xx is between 00 to 99.

In this case, they are seperate into two layers but I still fail to create more directories after creation of about 4k directories. That's why I wonder if this limitation extends to multiple layer of directories.

Best Regards,
Alvin

Hi Ivan,

Firstly I'm sorry that I haven't clearly explain my situation.
I would like to know if that 2K-4K limit is applied to only a single layer
of directories.

For example, the path is /coda/layer1/layer2/layer3. Is it the limit on the
number of entires in layer1 is 2k - 4k, including those under layer2 and
layer3? Or those under layer2 and layer3 are excluded?

Hi Alvin,

the size limit concerns one directory.

You can have multiple directories, each of them 256K in size...
