Umm...Well, that appears to me to be pretty self explanatory.

The usage of the 'nfile' kernel parameter has exceeded 75% of whatever the value of nfile is.

Basically nfile is the number of files that can be open by all processes on the machine. If it reaches 100%, then no more files can be accessed, thus hindering production.

Hi:

The kernel parameter 'nfile' is the maximum number of open files permitted system-wide. The warning is telling you that you have reached 75% of the maximum number of open files possible.

You may want to increase this value by re-tuning the kernel.
