With your disk usage of 97% I'd think that could be the case. You didn't say what file system you're using for that 21TB array, so we (this list) won't be of too much help without knowing that. tune2fs [0] is your friend - use it to determine if there are reserved blocks - use it to adjust the settings [0] https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/ext4#Remove_reserved_blocks > > [root at nas-0-1 mseas-data-0-1]# df -i . > Filesystem Inodes IUsed IFree IUse% Mounted on > /dev/sdb1 3290047552 4391552 3285656000 1% /mseas-data-0-1 > > I don't know if the following is relevant but the disk in question > is served as one of 3 bricks in a gluster namespace. > > Based on the test with touch, which is happening directly > at the NFS level, this seems to be an NFS rather than gluster > issue.
