You need to set a couple of things
I would recommend in /etc/system
set rlim_fd_cur = 256
I would not
set rlim_fd_max = 10240
You should also edit /usr/atria/etc/atria_start and add/change the parameter
to lockmgr to
${ATRIA}/etc/lockmgr ${LOCKMGR_ALIAS_OPT} -q 1024 -u 1024 -f 1024 >>$ADM_DIR/log/lockmgr_log 2>&1
smb.conf should have
max open files = 1014
and, lastly, on your NT clients, go into ClearCase Control Panel -> MVFS
Performance and set
800 Maximum number of mnodes to keep on the free list
800 Maximum number of mnodes to keep for cleartext free list

You can't

You will have problems. Programs that use the select() call don't like more
than 1024 file descriptors. cleartool uses the select call. So ... either
leave it unset (default max is 1024) or set it no higher than 1024.
