Breaking issue: Too many files open. #4629

chrisnak ·

Hello,

On random times or when some unknown circumstances are met, our QB server starts melting down with the Too many files open issue.

We are trying to figure why this happen, but we don't know yet what triggers it.
Most of the time a restart is sufficient to keep the server functional.
Today we experienced the issue twice in a row even a few minutes after the restart.

We will need some help to investigate why this happens.

Currently we have two theories;

a. Our big number of schedules triggering too often.
b. Our rest api, we have a big number of connections from a lot of users.

We have a -lsof log that I'm currently digging into with nothing interesting so far.
Any help would be appreciated.
