Yes it is, but there is a rlim_cur (current resource limit), which is the default value, and a rlim_max (maximum resource limit), which is the system-imposed maximum value for the resource. In Solaris 2.5.1 and 2.6, the hard limit value set by the system is 1024. You can reset the limits in the /etc/system file as follows:<br />
<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; set rlim_fd_cur = 1024<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; set rlim_fd_max = 8192<br />
<br />
If you put the above in the /etc/system file, users will have a default of 1k open files and be able to set their own limit up to 8k. If you're superuser (root), you can go beyond the max limit to some arbitrarily high value.<br />
<br />
Anyway, thank you for your useful ideas.

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.

Unix is a multitasking, multi-user computer operating system originally developed in 1969 at Bell Labs. Today, it is a modern OS with many commercial flavors and licensees, including FreeBSD, Hewlett-Packard’s UX, IBM AIX and Apple Mac OS-X. Apart from its command-line interface, most UNIX variations support the standardized X Window System for GUIs, with the exception of the Mac OS, which uses a proprietary system.
