Fwd: Linux Build Issues

[Douglas Service <ds...@gmail.com>]

I have added a section to the development Wiki that gives instructions to
both temporarily and permanently increase the number of open files allowed
on Ubuntu so the REEF unit tests will complete.

Hello,

My name is Doug Service and I would like to contribute to the project. My
JIRA id is dougservice. I have setup Ubuntu 16.04 and Windows 10 build
machines. When I first did a build on Linux with tests enabled, "mvn clean
install", the tests were failing due to a low limit on the number of open
files in the bash shell, "ulimit -n", (Shravan identified the error from
the logs). When I increased the limit, all of the tests were successful.
There seems to be a lot of disagreement in the online community about the
best way to permanently increase the number of open files allowed by a
single user. Just to test the issue I used

sudo bash
ulimit -n 40000
sudo -u dougse bash

Is there a common solution for this problem on the reef project?
