Azurit, could you check how many fds are opened by your apache servers ? (must be related to number of virtual hosts / acces_log / error_log files) Pick one pid from ps list ps aux | grep apache ls /proc/{pid_of_one_apache}/fd | wc -l or lsof -p { pid_of_one_apache} | tail -n 2 apache2 8501 httpadm 13w REG 104,7 2350407 3866638 /data/logs/httpd/rewrites.log apache2 8501 httpadm 14r 0000 0,10 0 263148343 eventpoll Here it's "14" Thanks -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
