Inode Usage
An inode is a data structure that keeps the information about a file on your hosting account. The number of inodes indicates the number of files and folders you have. This includes everything on your account, emails, files, folders, and anything you store on the server. To learn more about checking and reducing inode count, please see Inode Limits.
