Our CGP 5.0.2 system just went down. Linux Mandrake 2.6.15 kernel, Intel 32-bit. Running on the Reiser filesystem. It came back up Ok with a manual restart. The following was in the syslog: Feb 7 11:32:09 iowa CommuniGatePro: failed to write seqID Feb 7 11:32:21 iowa CommuniGatePro: CommuniGate Pro Server 5.0.2 finished Extracting what seems relevant from the CGP log...a few seconds prior to the crash, I see some failure to create temp files, then: 11:32:09.05 0 TEMPFILE(363779999) failed to create the file Queue/09/363779999.tmp.

Resource limits? We compile our own kernels, so is there a place we should be configuring the number of open files?
