To see the available, in use, and total inodes on all mounted
filesystems (you probably know this, but...):
$ df -i
Finding where (i.e. within which directory) the inodes are being used up
is a matter of finding where there are a lot of files:
$ for i in $(find /var); do echo $(dirname $i); done | sort | uniq -c
1 /
12 /var
16 /var/backups
6 /var/cache
3 /var/cache/apt
116 /var/cache/apt/archives
5 /var/cache/debconf
5 /var/cache/dictionaries-common
1 /var/cache/locate
14 /var/cache/man
...
There are probably better ways to do it, but the above is a
Quick'N'Dirty(TM) way to find the source of the problem.
