ulimit

There is a limit on the number of files being processed by a process in the linux,which is governed by the configuration file /etc/security/limits.conf.The limit value can be reset with out building the kernel with the following command.

ulimit -n : Using this we can increase the per user limit to any number using <ulimit -n number > in user .bashrc , to increase the number of files to pickup by a pid
and process and it is set in /etc/security/limits.conf.
