Felix, I executed *sudo lsof -p $(cat /var/run/tomcat8.pid) *and I saw the below output, some in CLOSE_WAIT and others in ESTABLISHED. If there are 200 open file descriptors 160 are in CLOSE_WAIT state. When the count for CLOSE_WAIT increases I just have to restart tomcat.
java 65189 tomcat8 715u IPv6 237878311 0t0 TCP localhost:http-alt->localhost:43760 (CLOSE_WAIT) java 65189 tomcat8 716u IPv6 237848923 0t0 TCP localhost:http-alt->localhost:40568 (CLOSE_WAIT) most of the open files are in CLOSE_WAIT state I do not see anything related to database ip.
