By default Linux kernel place an limit (for security purpose) on how many open file descriptors are allowed on the Linux server or desktop system. The /proc/sys/fs/file-nr is a read-only file and provides the the number of files presently opened.
Task: Find How Many Open Files?
To see current status, enter:$ cat /proc/sys/fs/file-nr
OR
$ /sbin/sysctl fs.file-nr
Sample outputs:
fs.file-nr = 6272 0 70000The above output contains three numbers as follows:
- 6272: The number of allocated file handles.
- 0: The number of free file handles.
- 70000: The maximum number of file handles.
