John - Is there some underlying problem with the O.S.? To me MTS doesn't make sense on top of an application server that is doing connection pooling. I would tend to first suggest reducing the number of connections the A.S. is configured for. But I suspect they have performed some study that tells them that they need that many connections. I thing Madhu hinted at that when he said they weren't handling the current number of connections well. Maybe the server is too small or too little memory. Okay, I'm running pretty thin on my O.S. expertise here, but something just isn't making sense. I have a big server with hundreds of dedicated connections and hundreds of files, and don't have this issue. Hopefully I won't encounter it anytime soon.

MTS is one option, but the basic problem could be that you have way too many Datafiles... Consolidating this files (via CTAS, Export/Import, etc.) will reduce the number of open files, as there will be lesser number of files to open.
