When running tail -f filename
, I got the following message:
tail: inotify cannot be used, reverting to polling: Too many open files
Is that a potential problem?
How do I diagnose what's responsible for all the open files? I have a list of suspect processes, but if they don't turn out to be the culprits, instructions that don't rely on knowing which process to check would be useful.
