As far as I know, there is a limit for the whole system, and a limit to a specific user.
What's the output of `lsof | wc -l`? 7095 What's the output of `ulimit -a` for the same user that oVirt runs as?
How to obtain that since ulimit is a bash command(?). sudo -u vdsm bash ulimit -a returns permission denied There is a /etc/security/limits.d/99-vdsm.conf which has limits for 4096 proc and 3*4096 nofiles.
