Difficult to understand your question.
When files are deleted the inode number of those files becomes free. Then the next file created will use the next free inode number which will be a lower number than the highest inode number.

Hi Guys,
I have this filesystem got big with inode:
/dev/hd4 3670016 183664 95% 63705 58% /var
I don't know why the system doesn't give alerts on this FS although it's 95% and why the inode is 58%.
Any comments will be highly appreciated.
Thanks,

fsirand
fsirand(1M) System Administration Commands fsirand(1M)
NAME
fsirand - install random inode generation numbers
SYNOPSIS
fsirand [-p] special
DESCRIPTION
fsirand installs random inode generation numbers on all the inodes on device special, and also installs a file system ID in the superblock.
This helps increase the security of file systems exported by NFS.
fsirand must be used only on an unmounted file system that has been checked with fsck(1M) The only exception is that it can be used on the
root file system in single-user mode, if the system is immediately re-booted afterwards.
OPTIONS
-p Print out the generation numbers for all the inodes, but do not change the generation numbers.
USAGE
See largefile(5) for the description of the behavior of fsirand when encountering files greater than or equal to 2 Gbyte ( 2^31 bytes).
ATTRIBUTES
