Can anyone explain to me what the 125 files hosted limit on filemaker server refers to if server can only host a maximum of 10 databases?

Server can host 125 files. What is this"maximum of 10 databases" you're referring to?

FileMaker Server 8 can host 125 files,unless it's running under OS X, in which case the maximum is 100 files. You can set a number lower than these in the SAT Tool. You should do so as a matter of fact, if you don't need a larger number. Makes for better performance.

Forgive me for quizzing you Steven, but is it really 100 files on OS X? I searched loads of docs, including the FMS8 admin guide, but can find no reference to this limit. I have always believed the limit to be 125 on both platforms.

Many thanks

Aah...

Seems if you run FMS ADVANCED on a NON SERVER OS X then limit is 100, but on a OS X SERVER it's 125.

Same limits seem not to apply to FMS.

Can you confirm?

The only reference I can find to "10 databases" refers to a limitation of IWP.
