You need to either increase your kernel's limit on the number of
simultaneously open files, or reduce Postgres' appetite for open files.
To do the latter, reduce max_files_per_process in postgresql.conf
(usually 50 to 100 should be an adequate setting that won't degrade
performance much). Doing the former depends on what platform you're on,
which you didn't say.
Although Postgres itself will usually survive well when the open-files
table is full, other applications on the system are likely to start
falling over :-(. So it's a real good idea to fix this one way or the
other.
