Hey guys
I'm running hbase on Ubuntu, and I'm experiencing problems with "too many open
files". I've got the following in limits.conf:
* - nofile 50000
* - nproc 50000
I think that the correct configuration is for hdfs, mapred and hbase users:
# user type resource value
hdfs - nofile 32768
mapred - nofile 32768
hbase - nofile 32768
And added "session required pam_limits.so" to /etc/pam.d/common-session . Hbase
master is getting the correct limit of 50k, but the regionserver (which is dying) and
zookeeper are getting the default 1024 limit.
Is there anything in the pipeline where the RS/ZK set the limit? I can't find
anything written in this or in the config.
Appreciate any help.
