Too many open files (24) related to /dev/urandom?

Post by parabola »

Since updated to Synology DSM 7, my Transmission has been consistently stopped working with "Too many open files (24)" error.

There's no lsof that comes with Synology DSM 7, so I had a look in /proc:

Code: Select all

sudo ls -l /proc/20950/fd | cut -d'>' -f2 | sort | uniq -c
besides the expected /volume1/@appdata/transmission/transmission.log and the files that I'm seeding, I also found huge number of /dev/urandom:

Code: Select all

    831  /dev/urandom
Is it normal to have that many opened file handle to /dev/urandom?

Could this be what's causing the "Too many open files (24)" error?

Also, my log is full of errors like:

Code: Select all
