maxfiles 2048 - 2048
maxfiles_lim 8192 Y 8192

I have maxfiles set to 2048. But java application is hitting the limit at 1000. Any one know where can be the this setting at java side.

Hi Santhosh,

Check this thread related to same issue. It say's ulimit value might have set for the user who starts java application.

user settings are same as kernel limit.

This may be the nfile limit for total open files?
Not sure why it appears at exactly 1000?

that wasn't the case. I check it by "sar -v 3 3" during the problem

If this is repeatable you may want to use "tusc -fp -o tusc.out" on your application and see where the error is occurring.
