Hi!

Running NetView 7.1.3 fp 2 on RedHat Linux AS 2.1.

I am having a problem with hundreds of netfmt -CF processes running and
eventually disabling the system because of too many open files [system
default open files has been set to 32K files].  How can I figure out
what is causing all these processes to start?  Here's my nettl status
output:

In addition to NetView the server also has the following running:

- MySQL DB
- Apache w/PHP and Perl.
- Some ksh scripts that perform /usr/OV/bin/nvUtil on various smartsets
once every 30-minutes.

That is essentially it.

Also, what does the netfmt -C option do?  It is not in the man page.

Thanks.

Mahesh
