We are in the process of integrating the JAMF startup, logout & logout scripts to integrate with our current management scripts/solution to migrate completely onto JAMF, but are running into issues with script error like "too many open files".

The JAMF scripts are shell/bash scripts have others tried increasing the open files limits either by modifying the default JAMF scripts using "limit -n" or "limit descriptors" or do you need to adjust the kernel's kern.maxfiles and kern.maxfilesperproc parameters?

FYI:

This modification has appeared to solve our issue and we are planning on start enrolling JAMF on more of our computers.

We also used details from this CrashPlan web page:
