The folder limit was reached some time back.
As a temporary solution some directories were removed .
They will be fitting new drives tomorrow so I guess i will format them
to XFS and use that.
since ext4 also has a limit ans jfs also has a limit of 64000 I guess
I will use XFS which allows 2^32 directories under a directory.
Flat directory structures became obsolete 30 years ago.
So, before migrating to xfs *just because it supports 64000
folders*, ask yourself and the users, "Why the heck do we have 32000
sub-directories in the first place???"
You all should (with some research and planning) be able to
reorganize that sprawling flat structure into a significantly nested
structure.
