[bgl-discuss] File descriptor limits?

[Robert Olson <olson@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

The mpiBLAST code is opening up a bunch of files on the nodes, and is  
apparently running into a 100 file descriptor limit.

Is there a way to increase this?

I did find this at http://www.fz-juelich.de/zam/ibm-bgl/usage/FAQ/ 
V1R1M0 :
