OK,

That didn't work. Gave Linux 65535 FD's and quota still gives 'quota:
System I/O error Too many open files'.

Now if I erase ALL the quota roots, quota runs as I would expect.

In order to repair the quotaroots, are the supposed to be deleted and
then recreated via setquota command? Then run the quota command?

This is what I am trying to get an answer to. I have a cyrus server
running about 3000 customers on which this is a problem.

Any help?
