I have set the maximum no of file descriptors open in a process to the value 8192 using the following lines
set rlim_fd_max=8192
set rlim_fd_cur=8192
in the /etc/system file.
I rebooted the machine and the command ulimit -n / -Hn both display the limits as 8192. However when I run my application , and see its limits using the plimit -k [pid] , i find the limit as 1024.
Anybody have any idea why this occurs
