[comp.sys.hp] inode table size on 7.0 ?

belkin@teecs.UUCP (Hershel Belkin) (02/07/91)

I have a question which has been puzzling me...
On HP-UX 7.0 (on an 825 at least), sar -v seems to
typically show the inode table to be "almost" full.
I have seen this on at least two different systems so
far.  In one case, I tried doubling the inode table size
(via a uxgen), and was astounded when sar -v then showed
the inode usage to have doubled!

I am assuming that this is a bug in sar, however there is 
always the possibility that I have a mis-understanding of
the output of sar -v (:-)

I should note that the output of sar -v seems more what I
would expect on HP-UX 2.1 and 3.1 ... the problem appears
only on 7.0.

If anyone could shed any light on this, it would be much appreciated!!
Thanks
