[Users] Problems with quota and hardlinks

Hi Bejamin,

If df show's you no space left (ie. 100% used) then there is no space left
(quite easy not?). Inodes don't make space, they are just used for storing
information (see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inode). OpenVZ does indeed
use inodes, as any filesystem does. But you're mixing things up.

Hope it helped you,

Kind Regards,

Esmé

Hi,

I have experienced a problem with ccollect, which is a tool similar to the
timemachine, which uses hardlinks.

At some point, the container in which ccollect runs says no more space, but
there are still plenty of free inodes, but no space with "df".

Any idea of the quota of openvz uses inodes or not?

Best,

failed attempts to legalise software patents in Europe, the patent
establishment changed its strategy.
Instead of explicitly seeking to sanction the patentability of software,
they are now seeking to create a central European patent court, which would
establish and enforce patentability rules in their favor, without any
possibility of correction by competing courts or democratically elected
legislators."
