response that best explained it.
As long as you can still create files, it won't matter to applications
that don't look first. However, if an
application checks to see if there are enough "free file spots" left for
it do its work, and find there aren't
it will probably fail. I read something recently to suggest that
setld(8) is one such application.
It could be argued that what happened to your domain is a bug...

Admins,
I think that I know the answer to this already but here goes, I have
a Tru64 5.1A system with advfs file systems. Here is the output of df -i
command for a specific file system
Filesystem 512-blocks Used Available Capacity
Iused Ifree %Iused Mounted on
var_domain#var 6304752 180638 6104864 3%
10654 10402356 0% /var
I ran quotacheck -v /var
then I checked the inodes again and here was the output
Filesystem 512-blocks Used Available Capacity
Iused Ifree %Iused Mounted on
var_domain#var 6304752 180150 6104832 3%
10412955 0 100% /var
I did a test to see if I could write a file to this directory and I
could so the question that I have is this, since this is a AdvFS file domain
does it matter that the inodes are showing as all used?
TIA,
