Set Permanently ulimit -n / open files in ubuntu
I want to set that new configuration (65535) permanently in my server. You can do it with following steps below :
# available limit
ulimit -n
# To increase the available limit to say 65535
sudo nano /etc/sysctl.conf
# add the following line to it
fs.file-max = 65535
# run this to refresh with new config
sudo sysctl -p
# edit the following file
sudo nano /etc/security/limits.conf
# add following lines to it
* soft nproc 65535
* hard nproc 65535
* soft nofile 65535
* hard nofile 65535
root soft nproc 65535
root hard nproc 65535
root soft nofile 65535
root hard nofile 65535
# edit the following file
sudo nano /etc/pam.d/common-session
# add this line to it
session required pam_limits.so
# logout and login and try the following command
ulimit -n
