Have a look at http://www.wlug.org.nz/ErrorMessages
Then click on EMLINK.
Yes, I know it is Linux, but read the description of possible causes.
This is a POSIX error, which could very likely be your Error 31.
FAT filesystems do not use hard links, but NTFS can, though I
don't know if hard links are a special case on NTFS.
Do these apps create a lot of sub-directories?
Or perhaps NTFS Hard Links?

Intermittent error that (so far) is only resolved with a server reboot.
Error manifests itself many ways but the most obvious are inability to
connect to the database and/or inability to log into the server itself.
If you do get logged in to the server...inability to start an
application; be it cmd or sqlplus. The error at that point is "Failed
to initialize application". No errors in alert.log and database comes
up fine after reboot.
The only error I've found is in the listener.log and I can't figure what
the underlying Windows error truly means. I have googled and metalink'd
to no avail.

32-bit Windows Error: 31: Too many links
Can anyone shed some light on what "Too many links" means? Open files?
Network connections? Sockets?
Thanks in advance,
