Hi,
inode size reached its 100% in /var
Due to this i'am getting the error No space left on device
my crond process is stopped and when i want to restart it
it is showing the below error
Starting crond: crond: can't open or create /var/run/crond.pid: No space left on device
df -i o/p
/dev/mapper/vg00-var 131072 131072 0 100% /var
