Re: How to extend the inode number on fileserver
More info please, e.g. file system type, etc. Do you know what's using inodes?
And did you first try a web search?

Re: How to extend the inode number on fileserver
You cannot fix an out of inodes problem without a full backup and restore of the data. In any case, since you're talking about an NFS share, this is not something you can fix from the NFS client, it has to be on the NFS server which is the machine that has the actual filesystem that is out of inodes.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

Re: How to extend the inode number on fileserver
Whether more metadata space can be allocated for the inodes does depend on the actual filesystem and its configuration.
IIRC, I've set some ext4 to have absolutely fixed inode count and others to be flexible. I've hit "interesting" limits on ancient XFS. I've increased inodes on NetApp FlexVol on-the-fly (but decrease is not possible).

Re: How to extend the inode number on fileserver
I am unaware that any ext* filesystem can have its inode numbers modified post-mkfs. Theoretically xfs doesn't have an inode limit but it does seem to complain sometimes that it's run out despite that.
