Its useful to clear the TDS cache (need remote monitoring):
https://motherlode.ucar.edu:9443/thredds/admin/debug?Caches/clearCache
https://motherlode.ucar.edu:9443/thredds/admin/debug?Caches/forceNCCache
https://motherlode.ucar.edu:9443/thredds/admin/debug?Caches/forceRAFCache
Then look at
/usr/proc/bin/pfiles [Tomcat Process ID]
to see what files are still open.
if you can do that, send me the output of pfiles.

Heiko,
Did you ever figure this out? We just had our
thredds4.0.26/tomcat6.0.18 crash with "Too man open files" also.

Hi,
we just had a crash of the thredds4.0.25/tomcat server and I was able to
analyse a bit the system before the operators restarted it.
Error message was: 'Too many open files' and checking the open files with
lsof or /proc/PID/fd showed 1021 open netcdf-files for the tomcat-pid. We
haven't made any changes to the thredds4 configuration concerning the
file-caches, so they should be between 200-400. We're using WCS, too, so
this might add some more files, but still not up to 1021.
We also use some aggregations of netcdf files, so one 'thredds-aggregation'
might consist of some hundred netcdf-files. Maybe this is counted as one
file in the fileCache?
I currently try to avoid further crashes by increasing the ulimit -n from
1024 to 16384, but I would rather be able to tune the file-cache properly
instead of throwing more resources at it.
Best regards,
Heiko
