Michael,

What is the best central place on an rpm-based distro (CentOS 6 in my case) to raise the vmem limit for specific user(s), assuming it's not already correct? I'm using /etc/security/limits.conf to raise the open file limit for the user that runs Solr:

ncindex         hard    nofile  65535
ncindex         soft    nofile  49151

Thanks,
Shawn

Dear Mike,
thanks for your your reply.
Just a couple of minutes we found a solution or - to be honest - where we
went wrong.
Our failure was the use of ulimit. We missed, that ulimit sets the vmem for
each shell seperatly. So we set 'ulimit -v unlimited' on a shell, thinking
that we've done the job correctly.
As we recognized our mistake, we added 'ulimit -v unlimited' to our
  init-Skript of the tomcat-instance and now it looks like everything works
as aspected.
