amanda 3.3.3 too many files

Hello amanda users, I just updates amanda 3.3.0 to 3.3.0 on a Solaris 10/x86 system. The system is both the server and the client, there are no other clients of this system. We have ~265 DLEs on this system (large zfs arrays and all samba shares are their own file systems and DLE, thank

Brian, Can you increase the number of open files at the system level? amcheck check all DLEs in parallel, you can try to add spindle (in the disklist) to reduce parallelism but that can have a bad impact on dump performance, so it is not a good workaround. You would like a maxcheck setting

Jean-Louis, Thank you, I'm sorry I was unclear. Yes, of course the disklist needs to be in place when I invoke amcheck on the server. I'd meant that I need to find out how to up the file limit on the client, which is a more difficult proposition since its SMF/INET and not simply something I can
