Best way to override 1024 process ulimit
- by CamelBlues
On CentOS distros, there is an /etc/security/limits.d/90-noproc.conf that sets a process limit for all users:
# Default limit for number of user's processes to prevent
# accidental fork bombs.
# See rhbz #432903 for reasoning.
* soft nproc 1024
I'd like to keep this limit in there, but allow one user to have more than 1024 processes. Because of how the server is puppetized, I'm unable to use the built-in bash ulimit command.
