libvirt users - May 2017 - Re: can't establish more than 1000 connections with virsh

Hi:

     I'm trying to connect with libvirtd with virsh from a remote PC,but 
only can establish 1000 connections.

     If try more connections,prompt:

     "error: failed to connect to the hypervisor
     error: Failed to open file '/etc/libvirt/libvirt.conf': Too many 
open files"

     I tried in another PC,also get the same prompt.

     Anybody know why?

     Thanks!


     environment:

     libvirt:libvirt-2.0.0-10.el7

     OS:centos7.3

There's a limit of 1024 open file handles by default on Linux. You would
have to raise that limit in /etc/security/limits.d/ for your user.

In /etc/security/limits.d/,there is only 20-nproc.conf.

I modified /etc/security/limits.conf,what I added is:

         "*       soft nofile 81920
         *       hard nofile 81920"

I also modified /etc/pam.d/login,that I added is:

     "session required        pam_limits.so"


The output of "ulimit -a" is:

     core file size          (blocks, -c) 0
     data seg size           (kbytes, -d) unlimited
     scheduling priority             (-e) 0
     file size               (blocks, -f) unlimited

     virtual memory          (kbytes, -v) unlimited

What I did is right?
