Hi,

Can you post the output of the following;

Code:
echo 'rlim_fd_max/D' | mdb -k | awk '{ print $2 }'

Regards

root@server10 # echo 'rlim_fd_max/D' | mdb -k | awk '{ print $2 }'

1024
root@server10#

The output shows 1024.Thanks

Hi,

The maximum that you can set this to is that value, so you can run the command ulimit -n this will return the current value.

If the value is less than the 1024 returned earlier, you can run ulimit -n 1024 this will set the limit to the maximum that the system will allow.

Then you can try and start the application again - if it still fails then you will have to take the outage.

Regards
