on RHEL6 "sudo" is not normally set up
you have to do that if you want to use sudo to allow some people SOME of the root access to SOME programs by default you use "su" and "su - " |

As root, these commands can give you a clue as to the the number of processes and of open files for the given user: ps -U username | wc -l lsof | grep username | wc -l Again, to fix the issue, you have to increase the soft limit in the /etc/security/limits.conf file. Also, you're using Red Hat Enterprise on VMware with Websphere...every piece is a commercial, pay-for product. Have you contacted Red Hat or IBM support, since you're paying for it? |
