We have a series of machines that we boot at once that all consume and produce messages on about 20 different queues all to the same broker. The broker has been terminating when these machines boot recently. We're not sure why. Here's some log data:

=ERROR REPORT==== 16-Sep-2009::11:48:52 ===
** Generic server <0.2390.0> terminating

The errors are indicating that rabbit is running out of file descriptors.

Either your clients are misbehaving and opening lots of connections when
they shouldn't (or perhaps they are not closing them properly), or the
fd limit set by the OS is too low.

Matthias.

Matthias -- it appears to have been the fd count -- there was 1024, we upped it to 16384, and things have been stable since.Thanks
