I checked using your python script – I modified it to wait for input so I could double dog check the files were simultaneously open.  Your script was able to open 1065 files at once.

I’ll forward the findings on to Lawson support.

Thank you.

file-max is set to 100,000

ulimit -n reports 20,000 for the hci user.

I can’t find any entry for nr_open but some quick research says that it defaults to 1024*1024.

After our last failure, we booted the machine – all adjustments to file-max and the user hard and soft limits were made since the previous boot.  I will…Read more

I also have another open case regarding the smat file cycling not releasing file handles.  Part of the problem still exists even after Rev 3 was applied.  If a thread or process is stopped and started when the log file is empty, the file handle will remain used.

With the mlp_tcp pdl, I only have the connection issue you speak of when the host and server are on the same server – I use client/server pairs…Read more

I already knew during testing that the threads were sluggish responding to commands such as pstart and pstop.  I use scripts to start and stop processes and threads.  However, we have about 20…Read more

We moved from HP-UX to Red Hat 4 about 14 months ago.  We’re currently running CL 5.5.

I couldn’t be happier – the transition was very smooth.  I had only one problem – using named ports did not work so I had to specify the ports by number.

Performance is incredible.  Performing an identical batch of translations was at least 10 times…Read more
