centos rsync No space left on device - centos7

Hint on centos7 when writing to file. No space left on device (28), but I checked the disk and Inodes both have space. I don't know why. Has this ever happened to anyone?

check "Disk space vs Inode usage"
df -h vs df -i
check also - No space left on device

Assuming this is ext[3|4], check and see if any of the folders you are rsyncing contains about 1M files. Note it is not a straight forward limit that has over flowed, it is more complicated and related to length of your filenames and depth of b-trees.
It is not disk space or inodes. It is the directory index that may have overflowed. See https://askubuntu.com/questions/644071/ubuntu-12-04-ext4-ext4-dx-add-entry2006-directory-index-full

Getting no space Error in AWS Linux instance

I am getting no space error in was Linux when I trying to git pull files. I don't know why the /dev/root file is so much big. Is there anyway to free up some space without deleting Linux packages like Node , composer , git etc ?

You've configured an 8GB disk which is very small for most installs. You can do two things:
Expand the root volume. Pretty simple job to do on AWS: https://aws.amazon.com/premiumsupport/knowledge-center/expand-root-ebs-linux/
Start removing files that take up space. The operating system itself takes up a significant amount of space unless you're running something super barebone like Alpine, but since you haven't specified which distro you're using, it's hard to give concrete suggestions here.

No space left on device even after increasing the volume and partition size on EC2

I have an EC2 instance with 2 EBS volumes. On the root volume, I increased the volume size.
First I modified the volume size on console. Then followed this instruction to extended the partition following this instruction.
However, when running any command, I get No space left on device.
echo "Hello" > hello.txt
-bash: hello.txt: No space left on device
The df -h correctly shows, the total space correctly.
$ df -h

The bottom of the guide said,
If the increased available space on your volume remains invisible to
the system, try re-initializing the volume as described in
Initializing Amazon EBS Volumes.
So I followed the instruction to reinitialize the volume.
I used dd to reinitialize.
sudo dd if=/dev/xvda of=/dev/null bs=1M
30720+0 records in
30720+0 records out
32212254720 bytes (32 GB, 30 GiB) copied, 504.621 s, 63.8 MB/s
However, I still get "No space left on device" error. I have done multipe reboot of the instance, I still see the same error.
Update 1: I have a large number of small files 4-10KB. So, I am running out of inodes. Please let me know how to increase the inodes (on ext4 partition)? Thanks.

Please let me know how to resolve this error.
You don't need to reinitialise the volumes if you are using the new generations EC2 instance type like M4, M5, T2 and T3.
You have to also expand your volume on EC2 instance:
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/recognize-expanded-volume-linux.html
As I can see your Inode is full, try this command to find the directory:
for i in /*; do echo $i; find $i |wc -l; done
Then, after finding the directory, do:
for i in /path/to/directory/*; do echo $i; find $i |wc -l; done
After that remove those file using:
rm -rf /path/to/fileorfoldername
As you don't want to remove the files, you will have to create a new filesystem using mke2fs and -I parameter for inode size, or keep increasing your root volume more.
Here is a similar question for it:
https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/26598/how-can-i-increase-the-number-of-inodes-in-an-ext4-filesystem
Also, you can move your files to secondary drive.
You are running out of inodes on your / (root) directory. so to debug it, you need:
Find what are the inodes pointing to or open files something like for i in /*; do echo $i; find $i |wc -l; done
Now look for directories which take more time and then delete that dir

Running out of inodes disk space, free space left on device

create a ramdisk in C++ on linux

I need to make a ramfs an mount it to an directory in linux using c++. I want to make it like a user (no sudo).
I need to call an application on a file that i created and it will be often. Writing it to HDD is very slow.
I found just:
system("mkdir /mnt/ram");
system("mount -t ramfs -o size=20m ramfs /mnt/ram");
but that is not good. I want to be a regular user, and command mount can be called just as root.
what can i do?
For a userspace ramfs solution, you can use python-fuse-ramfs.
I checket if /tmp is a ramfs, but it is not. It creates files on the HDD. but when i run df -h it outputs:
rootfs 25G 9,4G 15G 40% /
devtmpfs 1,9G 0 1,9G 0% /dev
tmpfs 1,9G 1,6G 347M 83% /dev/shm
tmpfs 1,9G 1,3M 1,9G 1% /run
/dev/mapper/vg_micro-root 25G 9,4G 15G 40% /
tmpfs 1,9G 0 1,9G 0% /sys/fs/cgroup
tmpfs 1,9G 0 1,9G 0% /media
/dev/mapper/vg_micro-stack 289G 191M 274G 1% /stack
/dev/mapper/vg_micro-home 322G 40G 266G 14% /home
/dev/sda2 485M 89M 371M 20% /boot
/dev/sda1 200M 19M 182M 10% /boot/efi
This means that tmpfs (ramdisks) are: /dev/shm, /run, /sys/fs/cgroup and /media. But only one of this is meant to be a temporary ramdisk for comunication between processes, using files. Here is the /dev/shm description and usage. The only thing is that tmpfs will not grow dynamically, but for my purposes it will be enough (20MB - 1GB).
