Python check to monitor the number of files opened by a process.
This Python check uses psutil http://code.google.com/p/psutil/ to monitor the number of files opened by a process: it expects the process 'pid' saved in a .pid file.

The check is useful to monitor the error "Too many open files" caused either by a daemon opening too many files or to a too strict ulimit configuration ( parameter 'nofile' ).
