Alex Huang commented on CLOUDSTACK-295:
---------------------------------------

This line is only needed when the system is running with hosts > the standard 1024.  This should be more documented as a scaling and tuning item.  It is not required for regular CloudStack deployment.

> Changing config files was deemed too unsavory to be done in a automated manner so that was removed from the spec file. 
> Thus we need to add a section to installation documents that discusses modifying /etc/security/limits.conf
> Here is what was in the spec file, this should only be for the management server. 
> # set max file descriptors for cloud user to 4096 sed -i /"cloud hard nofile"/d
> /etc/security/limits.conf sed -i /"cloud soft nofile"/d /etc/security/limits.conf
> echo "cloud hard nofile 4096" >> /etc/security/limits.conf echo "cloud soft
> nofile 4096" >> /etc/security/limits.conf rm -
> rf %{_localstatedir}/cache/%{name}
