No more handles
I am running 64b Linux Open Client RHEL 6.2 and RTC 3.0:
Build id: RTC-I20110307-1844
Every so often, when I try to Save an update to a work item, I get an error popup saying:
Error logged from Process Client UI:
No more handles
I click OK to dismiss the popup. My work item is saved with no apparent side effects.
Sometimes, after clicking OK, I get another error popup saying that there is a serious SDK error and I should close the SDK or I will lose data. I click Cancel to dismiss the message and nothing bad happens.
How can I get rid of these annoying popup messages?
I have tried increasing the session ulimit for RTC, but it makes no difference.

Hi
You do need to permanently increase the number of handles available in the OS. What is it set to at the moment?

Anthony,
I have a script which I run to launch eclipse/RTC. In the script, I set the following:
# Set higher ulimits than default
# max locked memory
ulimit -l 128
# max open files
ulimit -n 16384
# stack size
ulimit -s 20480
# max user processes
ulimit -u 1638
Hi
Take a look at the Help (eg: http://pic.dhe.ibm.com/infocenter/clmhelp/v3r0m1/index.jsp) and search for "Special instructions for Unix systems" (or just for ulimit).
Suggested ulimit is ulimit -n 65536
It is probably worth looking at the other info there too.
regards
anthony
