I'm new in kubernetes and I'm trying to deploy an elasticsearch on it.
Currently, I have a problem with the number of file descriptor required by elasticsearch and allow by docker.



[1]: max file descriptors [4096] for elasticsearch process is too low, increase to at least [65536]


So to fix that I have tried 3 different ways:



way 1



From the docker documentation, dockerd should use the system value as default value.




  1. set /etc/security/limits.conf with * - nofile 65536

  2. reboot

  3. execute ulimit -Hn && ulimit -Sn return return 65536 twice

  4. execute docker run --rm centos:7 /bin/bash -c 'ulimit -Hn && ulimit -Sn' (should return 65536 twice but no, return 4096 and 1024 )


way 2




  1. add --default-ulimit nofile=65536:65536 to /var/snap/microk8s/current/args/dockerd

  2. reboot

  3. execute docker run --rm centos:7 /bin/bash -c 'ulimit -Hn && ulimit -Sn' (should return 65536 twice but no return 4096 and 1024)


way 3





  1. add



    "default-ulimit" : {
    "nofile":{
    "Name":" nofile",
    "Hard":" 65536",
    "Soft":" 65536"
    }
    }



    to /var/snap/microk8s/354/args/docker-daemon.json



  2. execute systemctl restart snap.microk8s.daemon-docker.service

  3. execute journalctl -u snap.microk8s.daemon-docker.service -f will return unable to configure the Docker daemon with file /var/snap/microk8s/354/args/docker-daemon.json: the following directives don't match any configuration option: nofile


The only way I found for set the ulimit is to pass --ulimit nofile=65536:65536 to the docker run command. But I cannot do that inside my kubernetes statesfullset config.



So do you know how I can solve this problem ?
I didn't somethings wrong here ?



Thanks in advance for your help



ps: I'm on ubuntu 18.0.1 with docker 18.06.1-ce and microk8s installed with snap

  • aren't you using ELK images? I thought they had correct ulimit already

  • Yes, I have tried with docker.elastic.co/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-oss:6.5.4 and also with helm chart from elastic and the official one. And with all of them I have the same trouble....
