Can you check if the values have been changed in the .vol files before you
try this?

These files will be regenerated every time the volume is changed so
changing them directly may not be permanent. I was hoping setting the
cluster.min-free-inodes would have corrected this automatically and helped
us figure out what was happening as we have not managed to reproduce this
issue yet.
