File Descriptors

These definitions apply to file descriptors:

Parameter	Description
nfile	The value of nfile represents the maximum number of open files, or sockets, throughout the system. The default value should be enough to handle most JD Edwards EnterpriseOne needs. However, you must make explicit allowance for the maximum number of sockets that jdenet_n processes can create to communicate with clients. This number is the sum of all sockets for all instances of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne server software that runs on the system. The maxNetConnections parameter in the [JDENET] section of each JDE.INI file indicates this sum. This requirement is in addition to the system default value and the requirements of other software.
maxfiles	(rlim_fd_cur in the Solaris /etc/system file) The value of maxfiles represents the default soft limit on the number of file descriptors that any given process can have. A system call can raise the soft limit of a process as high as maxfiles_lim. For JD Edwards EnterpriseOne, the minimum value for maxfiles should equal at least the largest of all the maxNetConnections values in all the JDE.INI files in use + 10. This requirement is a minimum value, not a value in addition to the system default value and the requirements of other software. Note: If this parameter is too small, JD Edwards EnterpriseOne might not open the log file to generate an error message.
maxfiles_lim	(rlim_fd_max in the Solaris /etc/system file) The value of maxfiles_lim represents the hard limit of file descriptors that any given process can have. For JD Edwards EnterpriseOne, the minimum value for maxfiles should equal at least the largest of all the maxNetConnections values in all of the JDE.INI files in use + 10. This requirement is a minimum value, not a value in addition to the system default value and the requirements of other software.

Parameter

Description

nfile

The value of nfile represents the maximum number of open files, or sockets, throughout the system. The default value should be enough to handle most JD Edwards EnterpriseOne needs. However, you must make explicit allowance for the maximum number of sockets that jdenet_n processes can create to communicate with clients. This number is the sum of all sockets for all instances of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne server software that runs on the system. The maxNetConnections parameter in the [JDENET] section of each JDE.INI file indicates this sum. This requirement is in addition to the system default value and the requirements of other software.

maxfiles

(rlim_fd_cur in the Solaris /etc/system file) The value of maxfiles represents the default soft limit on the number of file descriptors that any given process can have. A system call can raise the soft limit of a process as high as maxfiles_lim. For JD Edwards EnterpriseOne, the minimum value for maxfiles should equal at least the largest of all the maxNetConnections values in all the JDE.INI files in use + 10. This requirement is a minimum value, not a value in addition to the system default value and the requirements of other software.

Note: If this parameter is too small, JD Edwards EnterpriseOne might not open the log file to generate an error message.

maxfiles_lim

(rlim_fd_max in the Solaris /etc/system file) The value of maxfiles_lim represents the hard limit of file descriptors that any given process can have. For JD Edwards EnterpriseOne, the minimum value for maxfiles should equal at least the largest of all the maxNetConnections values in all of the JDE.INI files in use + 10. This requirement is a minimum value, not a value in addition to the system default value and the requirements of other software.
