Unix -- Space problem -- File number limitation?
Dear all

Recently I cant touch file in one mount point (which is not full, 78% full only), it says can't write to device, obviously it means it's full, I deleted some files and I can write some files only. I wonder is there any file number limitation in a mount point and how can I check or how can I check if it exceed the limation? Thanks

(I m using Reliant Unix)

Depends on the filesysystem and I'm not familiar with Reliant. Try "df -i" on the filesystem to see if it is out of inodes. Also there may be a way to mount the filesystem in read-only mode.

No df -i for this unix:

hkgrm1@root>df -i
df: Illegal option -- i
df: Usage:
df [-F FSType] -P [-kl] [FIFO | file | directory | special ...]
df [-F FSType] [-V] [-begklntv] [-o specific_options] [FIFO | file | directory | special ...]
