**Question **
Hi guys ,
Does anyone know how to increase the number of file descriptors per
SYSTEM .
I know that the tunable parameter " rlim_fd_cur " sets the soft limit per
process , but how is this done per system ?
Thanks
**SOLUTION**
It seems like there is NO limit to the number of File descriptors per
SYSTEM,
The hard and soft limits per PROCESS can be set by the kernel parameters
rlim_fd_max
rlim_fd_cur

Edit /etc/system, e.g. :
set rlim_fd_cur=512
set rlim_fd_max=1024
reboot the system after the adding the above lines
(boot -r)

There is no such limit.
(If you increase rlim_fd_cur you also need to increase rlim_fd_max;
don't increase rlim_fd_cur past 1024)
