Looks like you hit the namei vnode limit of 67108863 files. From src/vol/namei_ops.c (for non-Windows file servers): * Inode number format: * low 26 bits - vnode number - all 1's if volume special file. * next 3 bits - tag * next 3 bits spare (0's) * high 32 bits - uniquifier (regular) or type if spare */ The namei vnode is a 32-bit field of which currently only 26-bits are available.
