What is cienaCesChassisFileDescriptorHealthMaxThreshold?

This object states the maximum possible value of the file-descriptor sub-category for the slot, effectively the operating system's configured limit on open file handles for that card. An admin uses this fixed ceiling to know exactly how much headroom remains before the card would start failing to open new files, sockets, or SNMP sessions. For example, a MaxThreshold of 4096 tells the admin that card's OS enforces a hard 4096-descriptor limit.
