<div dir="ltr" >Yes, that is correct. There should be a file /run/sysconfig/ganesha and that will have the currently used one. There are some plans to dump the config values using dbus, this way you get exact run time values.</div>

<div dir="ltr" >>> I see 512k open files while the logfile give 600k.</div>

<div dir="ltr" >There is one code path (accessing symlinks) where we are not decrementing the open_fd_count. This may explain why the actual open count is less! Usually, open_fd_count should be less than the actual count from /proc as the open_fd_count doesn't count sockets and some other opens. Thank you Bill, we will fix the symlink case as well.</div>
