"Oracle instance running on a system with low open file descriptor limit. Tune your system to increase this limit to avoid severe performance degradation." now appears in the alert log.

(n2)# sysdef | egrep "NAME|ninode|nfile|maxfiles_lim"

NAME            VALUE       BOOT        MIN-MAX        UNITS   FLAGS

Is the alarm coming from nearing the maxfiles? we are running HP-UX11 and Oracle 9.2.0.4
