I agree with those, who say this is a SysAdmin issue.
You didn't say what OS or file system you where running. Some allow
you to tweak the number of inodes and some don't. For example in Solaris you
can use the "newfs" command to specify the number of inodes per block
when making the file system. If your OS/File system allows this, then you
need to backup your file system, remake the file system with more inodes and
then restore said the file system. If your OS/File System does NOT allow
you to increase the inodes, then you have to add (and waste) more disk
space to get more inodes. A couple of options, kludge it with symbolic links
to other disks with more free inodes and space or if you are running a Volume
Manager, which supports concatenation, you can add more space and inodes.
Again this is all dependent on the limitations of your OS and File System.
