Ken,

When you have "Too many open files" errors in ANY of your logs this is
usually indicative of an OS problem.  I am not that familiar with Solaris so
I am not sure how the underlying kernel allows for more or less processes
along with files to be opened and closed for such processes.  You really
should check with someone that knows SUN fairly well that can look at this
issue.  But I can tell you that it is not a Legato issue.

Ken,

Are you running it on a UNIX or Linux OS?  If so then you have too many open
files on the system that it can

A.  Either not handle that many open files
Or
B.  You have to increase the number of open files allowed on your kernel.

Let us know if you have any more questions.
