Required Unix file descriptors

The number of file descriptors needed depends on the version of Aurea List Manager that is running. We recommend the following number of file descriptors depending on your license level:

License File Descriptors Messages / Hour

Platinum or less

1000 10,000
Platinum Plus 2000 100,000
Diamond 4000 200,000

Extreme

8000

300,000

On most versions of Unix, run the following command to view the file descriptors: ulimit -n

If the number displayed is smaller than the values displayed above for your license, you do not have enough file descriptors for Aurea List Manager to function correctly.

Run the following to increase them: ulimit -n 4000

Example

root@siri2:/# ulimit -n  
64 
root@siri2:/# sh 
# ulimit -n 4096 
# ulimit -n 
4096 
#
