The nofiles setting is too low 60 and needs to be adjusted to resolve the issue. Typically you should set it to 1024.
1. Shutdown Shareplex.
2. Do the following in UNIX:
ulimit -aS
Check the nofiles setting for soft limit and adjust it by typing:
ulimit -n x (where x represents some number)
For example, ulimit -n 1024 will set nofiles to 1024 for the session.
3. Start Shareplex and activate config.
