I did a couple tests using:
find (device) -xdev -inode # -print
And it wasn't too much of a delay (instant to few seconds)
George
Other than that I just ran the following (for xref method)
cd /data2 ; find . -depth -ls | awk '{print $1,$11}' > /tmp/inodelist and it
ran fairly fast, so if you were to
create a xref, cron could probably run that every 30 mins without taking up
too much processing time.

It seems like an "on the fly" scan across all possible filesystems would be
really slow.
I can't see how you can escape having a cross reference that gets rebuilt
periodically.
No one is going to want to wait a minute in interactive mode for a response.
No one else has encountered the issue that you can't tell what file a lock is
being set on?
Some people can tell from the key I suppose, at time, but many files can share
a similar key.
It seems odd to me, that after twenty years, we still have this issue in
Universe.

As far as I understood, no, they are unique only to their device, so you could
ave multiple files
ith the same inode in different filesystems.

Are inodes unique across all devices? I was under the impression that they
were
ot, and therefore you need both for a unique correspondence

ry "ls -li |grep inode#" in the directory where the file is likley to be or
s -liR / |grep inode#" to look everythere.
ou may need root permissions to check some files.

bject: [U2] Turn a device and inode into file name
nyone have an easy way to do this?
the past I've run a batch routine to just query each and every Universe file
r it's inode and device and build a table of these
very week....
ems like a great amount of overkill to me.
u could also mod the CREATE-FILE command to sniff it and make an xref entry
t ....
ny suggestions?
is is NOT for the case where you know the file and want to find the inode and
vice
's for the case where you know the inode and device (only) and want to find
e file.
