Hello, One of my servers is running out of inodes on /vicep?? partition...
Is it safe to: 1. shut down the OpenAFS file-server in question. 2. copy the content of /vicep?? partition somewhere safe 3. re-create ext3 file-system on the affected partition with better settings (for inodes) 4. copy the content of /vicep?? partition back 5. start the fileserver I vaguely remember that the file-server needs inode numbers to get to the files on /vicep??, and these would obviously change when doing the above. Or the inode numbers are scanned on file-server start-up (so the above would not break anything)? Other option comes to mind: move all the volumes (stored on the partition) to a different /vicep?? partition (using vos move), shut down the file-server, re-create the ext3 file-system with better settings, move the volumes back, start the file-server. This is on Debian GNU Linux, with OpenAFS file-server 1.4.2 .
