In order to make the necessary change permanent, I entered the following 
line in "/etc/security/limits.conf":

* - nofile 16384

The warning previously given by "testparm" is now gone.

 From "limits.conf"'s header:

«Quote:

- the wildcard *, for default entry
- nofile - max number of open files

End of quote»

Thanks to those who answered my question.
