Warning: fd limit 2000 is lower than what Dovecot can use under full load (more than 2054). Either grow the limit or change login_max_processes_count and max_mail_processes settings .. I kill dovecot and all children and restart it....same error message
What am I missing? Does the machine have to be rebooted for the no_size to be updated?
I've no idea about AIX, but it sounds similar to how Linux distros set them up. They probably affect only the logging in users' processes and not services that start up.
Anyway you probably still have "ulimit" command in AIX shells too? So before starting up Dovecot, make sure "ulimit -n" returns enough files.
