I don't know how much open files are needed. If finally depends on your
usage. I have long since increased the number of open files allowed from
the system default, so I really cannot say.
(Note that for each connection you will need file descriptors, so when
you intend to use a lot of parallel connections, you can expect to run
into trouble, if you do not increase the limit. I your usage is low,
it may work well for you.)

If it is missing in the documentation, it should be corrected. If you
check out the mailing list archive, you will see the requirement to install
the DCE patches: PHSS_19739 (required), PHSS_20608 (not sure if required,
but at least recommended.)
Your memory fault problem above is caused by the misssing patches.
