eg:
echo 16384 > /proc/sys/fs/file-max
I've had to do this on LOTS of my Linux boxen. This should be
docume
I forgot to mention: when my Linux box ran out of fd's, LOTS of
mailboxes got corrupted db files and such. Very messy. In the end, I
ran 'at 2am' and had it do a reconstruct -r user. For a while there,
reconstruct was my friend. Thankfully, I haven't needed to run it in a
while.

Well, as I said, you need to bump up fs.inode-max (/proc/sys/fs/inode-max
in old-speak) as well, plus you neet to bump up your per-process
limit (the kernel documentation in Documentation
edited it in /proc/sys/fs/file-max
Went to the extreme to try to get it to work.

_Where_ (and how) did you give Linux that many file descriptors?
There is a system wide limit defined (in fs.file-max and
fs.inode-max in sysctl naming convention

I believe in linux that would be
echo #_of_descriptors > /proc/sys/fs/file-max

OK,
That didn't work. Gave Linux 65535 FD's and quota still gives 'quota:
System I/O error Too many open files'.
Now if I erase ALL the quota roots, quota runs as I would expect.
In order to repair the quotaroots, are the supposed to be deleted and
then recreated via setquota command? Then run
OK,
Thanks, How do I tell Linux to add more file descriptors?

You need to configure your OS to let you use more file descriptors.
This is probably causing your quotas to get trashed to begin
