[xymon] linux disk space issue

[running out of inodes]

To the best of my knowledge, the only Linux filesystem that handles this well is reiserfs and that's been deprecated. The only way to set the inode ratio is at file system create/format time.

Personally, I prefer XFS as filesystem on "large" filesystems, including those that I use for storing Xymon data. So far I've been running out of space before I ran out of i-nodes. If need be, I believe it can be tuned without having to re-format the filesystem.
