Indeed.
And to forestall the next questions, see "man initscript", mine looks like
this:
---
ulimit -Hn 131072
ulimit -Sn 65536
# Execute the program.
eval exec "$4"
---
And also a /etc/security/limits.d/tuning.conf (debian) like this:
---
root soft nofile 65536
root hard nofile 131072
* soft nofile 16384
* hard nofile 65536
---
Adjusted to your actual needs. There might be other limits you're hitting,
but that is the most likely one
Also 45 OSDs with 12 (24 with HT, bleah) CPU cores is pretty ballsy.
I personally would rather do 4 RAID6 (10 disks, with OSD SSD journals)
with that kind of case and enjoy the fact that my OSDs never fail. ^o^
