Dear All,

Would appreciate if any one can help me out in freeing up Indoes in AIX 4.3.3

As I have gone through google but I didn't find any soln for this.

FS=/home

FS size = 65MB
Used=16MB
Iused=15583
%Iused=96%.

2 users are are taking up more space around 9MB & 3MB.

Please update me on this asap.

65MB isn't really much today ;-)
You can solve the issue by enlarging the filesystem, which will enlarge
the number of inodes too.
But it seems that your users / applications creates a large number of
very small files.
So better backup / delete / recreate the home fs with more inodes per
megabyte. Or perhaps cleanup orphaned temporary files???

Fastpath: "smitty jfs"
Parameters: "Number of bytes per inode" and "Allocation group size"

man mkfs, man chfs
