do you think a reboot can resolve this issue??
No, inodes is how the system locates the files.
i.e. file1 has the start at inode 3436346 once the system goes to the block where that inode is stored it either ets the files or a chunk with a reference to the next piece etc..

the only way to resolve this is to remove the files if possible or archive the files into a tar on another partition freeing up inodes.

can you post the df -i as well as df -k
fstyp /dev/dsk/

Is it a large drive 2TB?
