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,

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."

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
