Tips to resolve “NOTICE:HTFS Out of iNodes.. ” Error Message in SCO Open Server

                                                                                         

Inode, in HTFS (High Throughput File System), is an important metadata structure, which saves the critical information about files, directories, and file system objects. Every file stored on your hard drive contains a unique inode number. Corruption or damage in Inode primarily occurs due to various logical factors including unexpected system shutdown, operating system malfunctioning, improper use of fsck command, virus attack, and more. The data stored in the hard drive becomes inaccessible once your Inode structure gets corrupted due to any of the above reasons. To overcome such situations, an easy way is to restore data from an updated backup. However, if no backup is available, or back file itself gets corrupted, then you will need to opt for advanced SCO Data Recovery software.

As a practical instance, you encounter any of the below error messages when you attempt to boot your system from SCO Open Server:

“NOTICE: HTFS: Out of inodes on HTFS dev hd(1/42)
WARNING: HTFS: error 28: logging disabled”
Or
“NOTICE:HTFS Out of inodes on HTFS dev hd (1/42)”

The same error messages appear each time you attempt to boot your system. Furthermore, you encounter the same error message each time you attempt to boot your system using SCO OpenServer.

Cause:

Two causes for any of the above error messages are discussed below:

There are no free inodes for your file system.
Inode corruption.

Resolution:
To resolve the above error message and access the data, you will need to use “df -k” command. However, if the above command fails to resolve your issue and the data remains inaccessible, then you will need to reinstall the SCO OpenServer operating system. A clean reinstall of SCO OpenServer erases all the previously saved data on your hard drive partition or volume. In such situations, you will need to use powerful SCO Data Recovery application. Such SCO OpenServer Data Recovery applications employ high-end scanning methods to recover all the lost data. These applications are built with highly graphical user-interface that makes them easy to understand without any prior technical knowledge.
