ssh_config_file fails with "too many open files"
See original GitHub issueWhen opening 100+ connections, and passing in ssh_config_file as part of the driver config, I get the following:
File "/home/jf/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/scrapli/driver/core/cisco_iosxe/async_driver.py", line 132, in __init__
File "/home/jf/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/scrapli/driver/network/async_driver.py", line 48, in __init__
File "/home/jf/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/scrapli/driver/generic/async_driver.py", line 40, in __init__
File "/home/jf/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/scrapli/driver/base/async_driver.py", line 13, in __init__
File "/home/jf/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/scrapli/driver/base/base_driver.py", line 178, in __init__
File "/home/jf/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/scrapli/driver/base/base_driver.py", line 381, in _update_ssh_args_from_ssh_config
File "/home/jf/.local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/scrapli/ssh_config.py", line 75, in __init__
OSError: [Errno 24] Too many open files: 'ssh_config.conf'
Steps to reproduce the behavior: open 100+ connections using the following Driver dict
conn_info = {
"host": ip,
"auth_username": ssh_username,
"auth_password": ssh_password,
"auth_strict_key": False,
"transport": "asyncssh",
"driver": AsyncIOSXEDriver,
"ssh_config_file" : "ssh_config.conf",
}
}
- OS: Ubuntu 20
Am I misusing the scrapli config? It could be good to to pass the config in as a string instead of a file path and leave the file handle management to the user.

Hi @carlmontanari , I am sorry I was not able to test this as my project got delayed, I should be able to test this again in the coming weeks I will let you know.
Ohhhhhh… I don’t think it was you! It was me 😭 Looked at git blame cuz that sounded wrong/bad and found this – so if you were on 2021.01.30 and recently upgraded to 2021.07.30 you should be good w/ either context manager or just
await close.In any case, really appreciate the updates and glad it is working out well for you – thousands of devices sounds pretty awesome 😁 !!
