Hi Matthias,

the jobs are always children of slurmd, so they inherit slurmds settings. So you have to modify the systemd-unit, e.g. like the following:


[Service]
LimitNOFILE=51200
LimitMEMLOCK=infinity
LimitSTACK=infinity
LimitCORE=8388608:infinity

Hello together,

I have a special question regarding to set up the limit of max. open files under Linux.

It is in case of this about the value of the soft - files, not about the value for the hard files (see: ulimit-Sn)

Some users of the HPC use a large number of files for the processing in your application.

These applications break off " too many files open " with the error message.

The attitude of the parameters does not have any effects here since no "LOGIN" is carried out via SLURM via " etc/security/limits.conf ".

Who has already had to do with this subject and perhaps who can help me here?

*Best regards….*
