  | |  | I-node table overflow | I-node table overflow 2002-08-27 - By Jari Laaksonen
Back Witch kernel parameter on Linux (redhat 7.3) ? I used Patrol Console for monitorin our system and patrol claim that our machine has 100% of kernel-inodes used ....
"KERINodeUsedPercent
his parameter displays the percentage of kernel I-node slots that are used. An I-node is normally used to store active files, directories, and file information. It is also used for other services such as pipes, clone drivers, and on some systems ' semaphores. If the I-node table is full, the services that required I-node slots are refused by the system. You may get the message "I-node table overflow ". Abnormal results and missing data files may result. "
Any glue, witch kernel parameter I have increase ?
Best regards,
Jopi
