      @scottalanmiller I could've sworn there was a post here related to a reboot solving it

      Someone mentioned rebooting to try to solve it. But it did not (had already done that.) It was real files causing the issue, nothing orphaned. Literally, we were making 30K files an hour or so.

      Tiny files to, right?

      That is not relevant except for that fact that large files would have filled drive space and likely been noticed.

      How is that not relevant? more files = more inodes being used

      Size of the files is not relevant.

      It actually makes sense that @scottalanmiller said it was mostly directories. Files of any size will almost always run out of drive space before inodes run out in 99.9999% of situations. This is the first time I've actually heard of this happening, ever.

      Only not relevant for those who actually know about inodes already. The only reason I even know about them is they got mentioned in SGI's IRIX Sysadmin courses.

      The one major exception is marker files. "touch thishappened" as a file automatically and never clean up and you are using inodes without using any space. That's who you can easily learn about inode depletion. But who does that?

      People writing bad scripts that use lock files and forget to remove them.

      That wouldn't create enough to do this though.

      If you start using configuration management tools to manage infrastructure with code you get the chance to see some of these one-off oddities in the wild a little more frequently than you'd expect. Like having Java developers not use Java's log facilities to manage log rotation, and then having a generic log rotation configuration completely bork things by delete application logs that are still being accessed by the Java application.

      I got to see this issue a few dozen times a few months ago before another of our Engineers disassociated the Java applications from our generic log rotation recipe.

      Rebooting was the quick fix for us prior to fixing the actual problem.

      Oh wow. Everything I have is managed with Ansible ( I can't even log in to servers), however all of the devs use Oracle APEX on separate systems so they don't really touch anything on my stuff. I'm sure I'd have it much worse if I had to manage their stuff.

      It's neat because it is a rare test where basically only the kernel is different. So you really get to see Linux vs. NTKernel rather than artefacts of the entire stack.

      I have to say, though, I prefer the Ubuntu LXD approach much better.

      I know Canonical is a big supporter of LXD. Who is the big supporter for LXC?

      LXD is just an interface for LXC. So Canonical supports LXC through LXD. The biggest contributors to LXC are Virtuozzo, IBM and Google.

      So LXD makes it easier to manage LXC?

      Yes

      Fedora is better for active IT departments that maintain their systems. CentOS is better for companies that deploy and never maintain their systems and just hope for the best 😉

      I just wonder your statement here on CentOS, while I have seen you always praise CentOS than Ubuntu. Is that praise just about CentOS vs Ubuntu ?

      So your whole interest on Fedora is because it have Latest things and faster development ?

      You can do some CM in terraform also. You can do remote exec after it finishes like this:

      provisioner "file" { source = "file.config" destination = "/etc/configs/file.confg" }

      'You can ouput info for Ansible (or others) from Terraform after it finishes. For example:

      provisioner "local-exec" { command = "echo ${aws_instance.example.public_dns} >> inventory" } ouput "name" { value = "${aws_instance.example.public_dns}" }

      @scottalanmiller
      Are you running KVM and LXD on the same machine?

      I am, yes.

      Wouldn't this be the expectation? in many if not most cases?

      If you know my particular case, yes it would be an expectation. In a more common scenario, no, not so much.

      Wouldn't you typically have LXD on a hypervisor?

      LXD is a Type-C hypervisor, so while having it on top of a Type 1 is common, having it on bare metal is also common.

      You are entirely correct. The people like that it seems will not even consider anything else and would rather pay big license fees than learn other systems.

      Well I have downloaded Inkscape but haven't had occasion to use it much.

      If you have other graphics programs to recommend I'm all ears.

      Personally I really like the Corel products, they seem much more straight forward to use than PS. So I'm definitely not stuck on the PS side of things.
      I'm definitely a causal user

      I prefer Inkscape if I can do it. Vector is so much easier to work with than raster.

      Inkscape is awesome. Loads of professional work is done in that.
