UnMount fs – file system busy & mkfs Inodes

While trying to resize a filesystem, I found that umount failed with busy while fuser and lsof didnt display any files open, found a post the suggest the following

  • fuser -vm /var

To create a ext4 fs with more Inodes (df -i) about double the standard.

  • mkfs -t ext4 -i 8192 /dev/sda6

List by uuid

  • ls -l /dev/disk/by-uuid/
