Hi
I was testing xfs out, so i wrote a script that created 2.3 million files in
a directory, they were zero lenth files, them i deleted them, but now the
file system is using 500megs, i figure this is directory information that is
being held for future use. But since i will not be using 2 million files on
this file system, what is the best way to get this space back.
here is some relavent information about my system
[jamesd@magic jamesd]$ uname -a
Linux magic 2.4.2-XFS #7 Mon Mar 12 23:26:54 CST 2001 i686 unknown
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda9 3.9G 580M 3.4G 14% /home4
[jamesd@magic jamesd]$ df -i /home4
Filesystem Inodes IUsed IFree IUse% Mounted on
/dev/hda9 3.9M 3 3.9M 0% /home4
please email if you need any further information
Thank you
James Dickens
