[slurm-users] Increasing the OpenFile under SLURM ....

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
.
