Thanks for all who replied. Original request below. Special thanks to Richard Skelton and Markus Mayer, who pointed me in the right direction. Markus wrote: You could get an idea by looking at how many files/directories/... are in /var - 'find /var > -mount | wc -l' If that comes to anything near the 614,000, then somewhere there is a file hog that you will have to hunt down. I found tons of files in /var/spool/clientmqueque, an area that I did not expect. These files were outgoing mails which were not send and DCS error messages. Since sendmail is not running I have to find out what programs are actually trying to send emails. One of them is tcpwrapper and I will make changes accordingly. Again: Thanks to this great list!!

Servers have 16 GB HD in 3 slices: slice 0 5.8 G for /, slice 4 4.8 GB for /var and slice 6 4.1 GB for /export/home/. No free space. Both servers have been running for 2 years without problems. but all of a sudden both servers have the same problem: ufs: NOTICE: /var: out of inodes Filesystem (df -h) in /var (slice 4): 1.9 G used 2.9 G free, 40% used inodes (df -F ufs -o -i) in /var iused: 614592 ifree:0 %iused:100% df shows only 1 file in slice 4 I have these kind of servers in other locations as well and do not have any problems: /var filesystem shows 1.9 G used as above and %inodes: between 12 - 18%. df shows 1065000 files though. Has anyone any thoughts on how this could have happened and if there is an easy fix for this?
