Hello,
I'm running stock debian 11:
```
$ lsb_release -a
No LSB modules are available.
Distributor ID: Debian
Description: Debian GNU/Linux 11 (bullseye)
Release: 11
Codename: bullseye
$ uname -r
5.10.0-19-cloud-amd64
```
I have the following default hard limit on open files:
```
$ ulimit -Hn
1048576
```
I would like to increase that (and not just for my bash process), but no
matter what I try after searching online, I'm unable to change it. I've
tried changing this in `/etc/security/limits.conf`, in
`/etc/systemd/{system,user}.conf`, and I've tried using `prlimit` to
directly change the limits for the process in question (receiving an
error when doing so).
Does anyone here know how to increase the hard limit on open files for
processes running debian 11? Thanks for any help!
Cheers,
Thomas
