Sometime we get following error while user login:
$su - username
Coud not login: Resource temporarily not available
Most of the times this is because of processes or number of files available to user is already used. So, could not arrange more files/processes to login, in this case we required to increase the limits for user in /etc/security/limits.conf (PAM module)
username soft nproc 3000
username hard nproc 4096
username soft nofile 6000
username hard nofile 8192
Set these values as per requirement else setting up these values higher may result in server inaccessible in case that particular uses all file descriptors, process and higher memory of server.
