Hi,

What you will have to do is set the limits in the /etc/system file. So if you edit the file and add the following in the file.

Code:
rlim_fd_max=8192
rlim_fd_cur=2048

The system will then have to be rebooted for Solaris to pickup these values.

Regards

Hi,

Hopefully it will run, but it is failing because it has reached a limit - there is always the possibility that it will go further and fail when it hits an other limit.
