As a note, increasing fs.max-files had no effect for me. Using the following settings I was able to deploy about 23 containers with juju, which is higher than I could previously:
fs.inotify.max_user_watches = 524288 fs.inotify.max_user_instances = 256 These are the proposed settings to come with a juju install in bug #1631038. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1602192 Title: when starting many LXD containers, they start failing to boot with "Too many open files" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/juju/+bug/1602192/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
