Description
Resolution: Description: Each connection from the InConcert server to the client is via an RV call. This is actually a socket and that resolves down to a file handle. Normally the socket is only open a short time but if you have a great number of connections going on or are running your applet and using threads you can have a lot more connections that stay open longer.
Increasing the number of file handles will fix the problem. See description for an explanation.
You can increase the system-wide soft limit of the number of open files per process. Add the following entry to the /etc/system file then reboot your system.
set rlim_fd_cur = 512
(Max value = 1024) ------------- End Included Message -------------

This was found in the Solaris System Admin Guide list of error messages:
Too many open files
Cause A process has too many files open at once. The system imposes a per-process soft limit on open files, OPEN_MAX (usually 64), which can be increased, and a per-process hard limit (usually 1024), which cannot be increased.
Action You can control the soft limit from the shell. In the C shell, use the limit command to increase the number of descriptors. In the Bourne or Korn shells, use the ulimit command with the -n option to increase the number of file descriptors.
If the window system refuses to start new applications because of this error, increase the open file limit in your login shell before starting the window system.
Technical Notes The symbolic name for this error is EMFILE, errno=24. ------------- End Included Message -------------
