inode links
I use a script that creates hard links on a drive for each entry in a database. Recently, the script started reporting errors saying the maximum number of links was reached. What is the maximum number of links? Is it different on different OSes? Is it better to use symlinks? Is there a way around this or should I change the script to make copies of the files instead?

the manpage of link(2) might shine a little light into the situation:
man 2 link check out the error message for exceeding maximum links (EMLINK) to a file. Your mileage may vary: Code:
[EMLINK] The link count of the file named by name1 would exceed
32767.
