If I create files, the number of free inodes does not change. If I delete the files, the number of free inodes increases. So, from a client perspective, if I repeat to create and remove files, I can have more and more free inodes. I tried to find a bug for this in Whamcloud's database but could not find one. 'df -i' for the mdt on the MDS looks OK.</div><div><br></div><div>I think behaviour is depicted here:</div><div><a href="http://lists.lustre.org/pipermail/lustre-discuss/2011-July/015789.html">http://lists.lustre.org/pipermail/lustre-discuss/2011-July/015789.html</a></div><div><br></div><div>Right now I don't think this is a big problem. Can this turn into a real problem? Like when the number of free inodes as seen by the client exceeds 2^64 or whatever is the limit there?</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Michael</div><div apple-content-edited="true">
