thanks to the fastest reply ever (thanks Corinne and Tom),
I now realize i did'nt write all.
Advfs version is 5 as you can see from the 4 (!) reported by showfdmn:
showfdmn usr_domain
Id Date Created LogPgs Version Domain Name
39363f99.00090e00 Thu Jun 1 12:48:57 2000 512 4 usr_domain

1L 4194304 305408 93% on 256 256 /dev/disk/dsk1g

Tom Blinn wrote as follows:
Use the "df -i" command to find out how many inodes you have free in
the filesystem. If you have lots of jobs that have created files in
the /var/tmp directory, for example, and the files have been deleted
but the processes that created them are still running (lsof or fuser
may provide some clues), that can exhaust the inodes but you can't
find the files. Sometimes the ONLY cure is a reboot.
and as always he is right!
df -i /var
Filesystem 1024-blocks Used Avail Capacity Iused Ifree %Iused Mounted on
usr_domain#var 2097152 66903 154240 31% 586400 0 100% /var
Now I kill as many processes as I can in the hope to avoid shutdown the
server. In the worst case I'll shutdown it.
If I learn who is the i-node eater I'll write to the list.

ORIGINAL post:
Dear friends,
after a long while, here I'm back asking for your help!
T64 5.1 2nd patch running on a ES40
while installing products using setld I get the following message:
....
Checking file system space required to install selected subsets:
fitset:
file system /var needs 103 more inodes to install the software specified.
setld:
There is not enough file system space to install all the subsets
you have selected. Please press RETURN to start another selection.
I cleaned as possible /var and /usr (they belong to the same domain),
but the error occurs again. So I did:
showfsets usr_domain
usr
Id : 39363f99.00090e00.1.8001
Files : 37625, SLim= 0, HLim= 0
Blocks (512) : 1966836, SLim= 0, HLim= 0
Quota Status : user=off group=off
var
Id : 39363f99.00090e00.2.8001
Files : 17179876114, SLim= 0, HLim= 0
Blocks (512) : 146632, SLim= 0, HLim= 0
Quota Status : user=off group=off
and as you can see I have a wrong huge number as Files in the var fset.
I did
verify -a usr_domain
without any error, but the huge number in showfsets of var still remain.
I did'nt reboot the machine (as I usually do when strange thinks
happens) since the server is running many batch jobs.
Can you , please, help me?
thanks a lot from Italy,
Emanuele
