how to monitor inotifywait watch file












0















I use inotifywait for event trigger which put file.



When many files are watched by inotifywait, when max_user_watches is exceeded, the following error occurs.



Terminating since out of inotify watches.#012Consider increasing /proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_watches



It is necessary to tune /proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_watches, but is it possible to check the current file watch number?



Is there a way to check like file-nr in file descriptor?
