Oh could this be related to a backup running over it while being accessed?

Hi

It means what it says.There are more files open than allowed by the kernel parameter nfile.

Generally this means a problem with kernel params, you need to increase maxusers and nfile and nproc will increase with it.

You will need to increase this (via SAM (Kernel COnfiguration)) and reboot.
