rnode table overflow
If an NFS client tries to access too many files simultaneously
(including mount points, directories, and running binaries) in remote
NFS-mounted filesystems, you may see the following error message:
nfs_iget: rnode table overflow
The default maximum number of remote files that a client can access
simultaneously is 256.
To increase this number:
-
Log in as root on the client and run the
scoadmin(ADM)
Network Configuration Manager
or
netconfig(ADM).
-
Highlight SCO NFS Runtime System.
-
Select Modify protocol configuration from the
Protocol menu.
-
Increase the number of NFS connections and click on
OK.
-
Exit the Network Configuration Manager and select to relink
the kernel when prompted.
-
Shut down and reboot the system for the change to take effect.
