The inode usage of the server is full

Filesystem Inodes IUsed IFree IUse% Mounted on /dev/vda2 2305632 2305632 0 100% / tmpfs 490504 6 490498 1% /dev/shm /dev/vda1 128016 46 127970 1% /boot /dev/drbd0 5242880 104705 5138175 2% /home /dev/sr0 0 0 0 - /media/config-2 gvfs-fuse-daemon 2305632 2305632 0 100% /root/.gvfs

I checked the directories that have a high number of inodes and found the following

 for i in /*; do echo $i; find $i |wc -l; done ... /tmp 2206573 ... cd /tmp/ for i in ./*; do echo $i; find $i |wc -l; done ... ./orbit-root 2206511 ...

How Can I reduce the usage of inodes??

The obvious answer is to delete some files, that will undoubtedly free up inodes.

There's no sane reason /tmp/orbit-root should contain that many files. You don't say what the files are, or what Linux distribution you're using, however I found https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1258459 which states that running linc-cleanup-sockets might help here.

  • There is no linc-cleanup-sockets command. I deleted some files using rm. The inode usage decreased. Commented Dec 9, 2019 at 22:13
