[Gluster-devel] Too many open files

[Brent A Nelson]

I already looked there, and my file-nr allocated is much lower than 
file-max.  It might be hitting some other limit, perhaps even a limit 
imposed by the bash that started glusterfsd.  Still it really seems like 
there shouldn't be so many allocated file descriptors lying around (no 
files should currently be open, and rsync wouldn't have left large numbers 
open at the same time, I assume), so I think it's a bug where GlusterFS is 
not closing all the file descriptors it opens or allocates.

Thanks,

Brent
