ODB 1.75

[Paul Mulroney]

Hi $All

maxproc and maxfiles rings a bell.  It was 2013 when we last looked at this.  We had a client with a lot of connected workstations, and a large datafile with lots of segments.  The short answer is the machine ran out of file handles, so we had to fiddle with the system parameters to adjust this.  You can see what the current limits are by typing:

sudo launchctl limit

The procedure to change the limits depends on the version of macOS that you're using.  Back in 2013, you could create an /etc/launchd.conf file, add a line for each limit you wanted to adjust, and then restart the system.  

For more recent versions, you may need to look at these articles:

Regards,
Paul.
