Thanks, I'll keep that in mind indeed. I was very surprised by the system limits (using mariabackup) so I couldn't imaging that being such an issue.

After a general failurea few days ago I was left with one node alone and starting a second node produced the same issue while only one node was used for reading and writing. So writing to multiple nodes might be another issue I'll have to deal with later.

If I can solve that restart issue, that'd be removing a huge problem which puts down all our services entirely for 30 minutes when it happens.

So again, thanks a lot for your precious help, hopefully that setting is getting us in the right direction.

No, remember that LimitNOFILE has to fit at least the sum of all of the settings I mentioned, and still leave plenty of headroom.
If you had PMM up and running you could see at a glance whether your table_open_cache is big enough.

IMO you are probably experiencing bigger problems from writing to multiple nodes at the same time.
