error (1118) or error (3261), check maxfiles (HPUX)
Connecting to a database by entering the procedure editor and
executing a connect command and it returned error (1118)
SYSTEM ERROR: bksetmv : Can't open <file-name> for synchronous i/o
(1118), where <file-name> is one of the database extents.
Tried to get around this by executing pro dbname, got error (3261)
Unable to run the PROGRESS Procedure Editor <procedure>. (3261)
Neither of these approaches gave any indication of the real problem.
A third approach finally gave error (2257):
Unable to open or create <filename>, error <number>. (2257), where
<number> was 24 - You have too many open files. It was then realized
that error (1118) and (3261) were hitting the maxfiles (HPUX) limit
for the number of open files per process.
BTW: The error just started occurring when they restructured the
multi-volume database to use more extents.
