I am trying to increase number of open files from 1024 to 32768 in Digital Ocean Droplet in the result of following command result



$ulimit -a



I am able to do in aws ec2 successfully in following way



$sysctl -w fs.file-max=65536



$sysctl -w fs.nr_open=65536



$echo 65536 > /proc/sys/fs/nr_open



$ulimit -n 32768



$sudo vi /etc/sysctl.conf



fs.file-max = 32768



sudo vi /etc/security/limits.conf




  • soft nofile 32768

  • hard nofile 32768

  • soft nproc 65536

  • hard nproc 65536


But with same process it's not reflecting in Digital Ocean machines.



Any Idea ll be appreciated.

  • Have you tried this? Raising the Maximum Number of File Descriptors (Open Files) on Ubuntu 14.04 Trusty. Most probably work on 16.x & 18.x.
