Better Handling of this ERROR: logdna_agent::_main] Couldn't batch lines Io(Os { code: 24, kind: Uncategorized, message: "No file descriptors available" })

[Piponater]

I seem to be getting this ERROR more often than I would like on ubuntu 20.04 (agent v2, 3.6.0-1).

logdna_agent::_main] Couldn't batch lines Io(Os { code: 24, kind: Uncategorized, message: "No file descriptors available" })

On occasion when I get an error I don't get 1 or 2 of them but ~1243140 lines, or ~1056301 lines, ~277752 of it (according to the alerts I have for it from mezmo being ingested), which fills up my root filesystem grinding my server to a halt and secondly all the millions of the lines (which I can guess is couple Gbs, gets sent to mezmo for ingestion which we get charged for).

Could some sort of Handling of this error be put in place e.g. for the agent to log a maximum of 100 lines and then stop, not continue into the millions of lines, this doesn't feel appropriate and wasteful, maybe 100 would make sense.

Why is there no response to this?

We've reproduced the log flood issue. Working on the fix.

We have been forced to disable all agents until a fix is released.
Is there an estimated time to resolution?

It will be in our next release (3.8). We do not have an exact time for this release.
