If you are, you can change the default values at newfs time. Unfortuneatly, there is no way to do this without remaking your filesystem. The default is one inode for every 4 frags, which default to 1024. I would back of your min free space to 8%. FFS gets really poor performance with less than that free. This likely will solve your inode problem, as well. David To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
