Systemd 228 introduced a global task limit of 512 for system services. System 231 changed this to 15% of pid_max, or 4915. In particular the one of systemd 228 is too low for multipathd with many LUNs. Use TasksMax=infinity to overcome this limitation. --- multipathd/multipathd.service | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+)
