Hello all,

I'm experiencing this bug as well, is there any planned fix ? currently i have to revert back to rsync, we have 900 DB's with 194078 .ibd's.

i've tried everything, setting a higher limit in limits.conf and raising innodb open files limit in MySQL, nothing seems to help.

any advice ? I'm using the latest xtrabackup 2.1.8, here is a small piece of the log:

InnoDB: Allocated tablespace 177580, old maximum was 0
