> I have a cassandra node running in AWS for test purpose.
> When I was going to test it today, just found it was down. And I have checked log file, the error is :
> ERROR 19:40:36 JVM state determined to be unstable.  Exiting forcefully due to:
> java.io.FileNotFoundException: /var/lib/cassandra/data/talkatonegroup/invite_external_members-4b19b590664911e5906a018f9ca3e4f8/la-1-big-CompressionInfo.db (Too many open files)
> And even when I try to restart, it also shows the same error message. 
> Any ideas?
