Answer

The threshold is hardcoded into the syslog message - the "80 percent" is not a variable and cannot be changed:

EMS Identifier wafl.vol.runningOutOfInodes
Severity ERROR
(…)  
Syslog Message The file system on %s %s%s%s is using 80 percent or more of the files that can be contained on the volume.
Parameters type (STRING): Type of object (volume or aggregate).
owner (STRING): Volume owner.
vol (STRING): Volume name.
volident (STRING): Unique volume identifier when the volume name alone is insufficient.
