Hi,
I have a mailing application running on RedHat 7.3, Every couple of months we have a problem with the inodes getting used up on the /var partition. There is a lot of space on the partition, However the inodes are used up by a lot of 0 byte files by this application. I just wanted to ask the gurus in the list, if anyone came across this problem and how they went about trying to solve it.
I had to find out the 0 byte files in /var and then deleted the 0 byte files.
Thanks..
