U can use ulimit -a to identify the number of files for that user
then you can increase using ulimit -n to a 500 to increase the no of files to 500

The man number of inodes that a filesystem can have is set when the filesystem is created using the mkfs command. The same can be done by using the '-o ninode=0' in the command or skipping mention of ninode altogether. From the man page of mkfs_vxfs,
Quote:
ninode=n
n is the maximum number of inodes in the file system. The actual maximum number of inodes is n rounded up to an appropriate boundary. The digit 0 and the string unlimited both mean that the number of inodes is unlimited.
The default is unlimited.
