    Attempting to create a file on a large XFS filesystem - and it fails with an exception indicating insufficient space!  There is available blocks - df says so.  HUh?  While, unlike traditional UNIX filesystems, XFS doesn't suffer from the boring old issue of "inode exhaustion" it does have inode limits - based on a percentage of the filesystem size.
