NOTICE: /var out of inodes

Looks like I need to run a fsck on var to solve this? What is the easiest way to go about this. Booting to single user mode mounts this file system. I don't think I have enough space to move /var data somewhere else temporily.

No. 'fsck' doesn't create inodes.

UFS sets the inode density when the filesystem is created. You cannot increase that density without recreating a new (empty) filesystem.

Can you find anything in /var that you can discard?

Can you move portions of it to another filesystem?

Otherwise, you're left with copying the data somewhere, creating a new filesystem with a denser inode count, then restoring the data.
