[lxc-users] General question about limits and kernel parameters

[Flo]

Hi,

I've got a general question about limits and kernel parameters. Limits are
process based so I am able to set them inside of an LXC but do I have to
set those limits also on the host itself?

eg. If I want the user (only known in the LXC) elasticsearch to be able to
open 65536 files - won't the host block the process @1024 ???

What about kernel parameters? I am able to set local_port_range to 1024 -
64000 inside the LXC  but what about:

net.core.rmem_max
net.core.wmem_max

net.ipv4.tcp_rmem
net.ipv4.tcp_wmem

net.core.netdev_max_backlog

net.ipv4.tcp_congestion_control

fs.file-max


Regards,

Flo
